Awesome, thanks!

I'm not quite sure what you mean about cronpass.txt. Isn't that used for the 
monthly password reminder? What do you mean about it not being used?

BTW could you kindly give me a complete list of the possible templates (or 
at least the default or standard templates) and their "friendly" names, from 
the edithtml.py file, as you did above with those first five entries? That 
would be very helpful. :)
