The problem with this approach in the general case is that there are many 
occasions when there is an expectation for a node to match a built-in 
template: the absence of a template to match a given node is not sufficient 
warrant for removing that node.

It sounds like a pretty cool idea for situations where this is checked 
against, however. (If I understand correctly.)
