No, this is wrong. We can add folders for template, and we have to do 
this if we want to work with ours own templates. that's my case, and 
surely, I'm not the only one.

But this can be confusing. Many peoples don't know where the title come 
from, and don't know of to change it. So they change the file name and 
don't understand why the title isn't changed
