We want to but so far have had little end user feedback on templates, so 
they are still classed as experimental. If it gets more community 
support and the community helps mature the api and featureset we will 
look to support this fully. It's just there are lots of different ways 
the templates could work, not just from excel, but any tabular data 
source like a DB, so want to make sure we get it right and it's just 
been a lower priority than getting drools 5.0 out the door.
