To clarify, I do not think that we need to switch to doct format of the
templates. The old format must be kept for backwards-compatibility.

There is not much problem with current format if you already have
working capture templates. They should keep working even if doct gets
merged.

The problem with current format reveals itself once you need to tweak
the existing templates or need to write new templates. doct makes things
much easier and much more readable.

Best,
Ihor
