Can templates be nested? E.g. create one for all of my current students by naming the individual templates for each course? This is also useful for gathering faculty groups in hierarchies (as they are typically organized administratively). This isn't as important to me as copy/paste, but that ability to nest groups is my second favorite feature of Mulberry.
