Bugs and workarounds
The particular templates I'm using work best when they are filled with a lot of text or graphics. Otherwise the table doesn't always flex to suit the browser. This causes the left edge of the table to jump around.

Setting status="open" on a section with no children will not force that section to display its template by default.
