[issue10354] tempfile.template is broken

[Eric Smith]

Eric Smith <eric at trueblade.com> added the comment:

I sort of agree with David.

The global "template" is a bad name and a bad design. And since it doesn't work I don't think anything would be lost by modifying the code to ignore it; document that it's unused and deprecated; and remove it in a future version.
