+1

and in a future release, maybe add "something" to easily list all 
default templates.
Ex : a new tab that just dynamically list the 4 default templates 
(writer, calc, impress, draw)
Ex : or a popup in the toolbar that list dynamically list the 4 default 
templates ; when you select one line, the template manager open the 
correct folder and selects the template.

The current implementation of search is so bizarre :
Why not insert the search field in the main toolbar ?
it would be so simple.

in ascii art :

today :
.............(empty space).............|Search icon|  |Gear icon v|


proposal :

.............(empty space)......[   Search field   ]  |Gear icon v|

the search field can have a placeholder "search template by name" or equiv.
Usually, search field don't need a high width, because users only enter 
3 to 5 characters.




And another requests :
       * in the "breadcrumb" (when you are in a folder)
add some ">" between part of path or a visual element that clearly 
indicates that it is a breadcrumb.


      * when you select a template (single clic), the search icon and 
gear icon are hidden. Why ?
I see no problems if they are visible when a template is selected.


     * in the "properties" dialog, show the real path of template.
It'll also indicate if it's local or remote.
