> The "custom template" for unknown tags is really useful but extremely well hidden and rather quirky to use
> 1) The shortcut in the context menu just says "Template" ...no indication of what it does.
> I suggest we call it something like "Setup template for <the tag name>..." ; that describes what it does plus has ... to show a dialog will come up
> 2) The actual dialog allow me to type in *any* text for the tag, I instantly tried <button> but that is wrong it should be just button. Help the user here ;)
> I also tried putting rich:calendar but it does not look like it supports template translation, only simple basic tags - then we should just have editable combo list with choices here.
> 3) Give a preview of how the tag will look like in the dialog
> 4) The Template editor in preferences has no instructions and no Add button; at least explain the the tables contain existing prefreences for already configured templates and tell them about the "Setup template.." action in the context menu.
> ....It also contains 2 lines with some names I never setup (i.e. unknowntag-1, unknwontag-2) - remove them.
