Queries for Bob #1 -- "editions" v. "templates"

[@TiddlyTweeter]

Jed & Bob

I'm writing this here for lack of anywhere else to put it. Its too exploratory for a GitHub issue. Its too off-topic for one of your  Bob threads.

I'm using Bob (single executable) with great gusto. The recent addition of "editionsPath" was great. I was in love with it for a week then I hit a limit.

The problem is I don't think I need more "wiki editions". What I need is something more like "template wikis". That would be something like "editions" by editable in the normal way. The problem with editions is you can't directly edit them in Bob.

But what I do, in practice, is constantly refine wiki to work smarter for my needs. Those functional enhancement in a "work-in-progress" I want to be able to transfer to a "template version" of that wiki so any later wiki I make with similar functionality will benefit. 

I hope you understand the point. (1) Wiki editions on the "editionsPath" are cumbersome to  update; (2) Wiki I want as "templates" can be easily made and maintained but not easy to make a new wiki from.

Queries...

    - Not sure if its at all possible but could "editions" on the "editionsPath" be BOTH editions and normal Wiki? That you could edit them?

    - Or, just as good, that you could designate a normal bobWiki as a "template", editable in the normal way, but which can also be cloned easily to a new Wiki?

Please ask if this is unclear.

Best wishes
