The idea of a new template manager was to bring the content of that old
menu to the users. At least now they don't have to discover that item
(too far down in the File Menu) that triggers a sub-menu.

Instead they will discover that they can do things with templates in the
new dialog.

Advanced users know it... the idea is to help people using templates
even if they aren't advanced users.

The old menu's features are either in the new dialog or in other places
of the UI: that's why the whole submenu and it's content was dropped.

Suggestions are nice, but pretty not welcomed now for 4.0.x as we passed
string freeze (or our localizers friends won't be happy).
