Allow for email template files

[anonymous]

I would like to see the ability to specify template files for .body similar to this:

notify_reporter_accepted.body = Template[notify_reporter_accepted.txt]

[ethan.jucovy@…]

I'd love to have this feature.

I think I would prefer to spell it more like:

notify_reporter_accepted.body = notify_reporter_accepted.txt
notify_reporter_accepted.body.source = file  # either "file" or "string" (the default)

The code would be simpler that way, and would also leave room for future expansion (e.g. getting templates from wiki page contents or files in version control)

I think a global setting would also be useful:

default_template_source = file 

I'm not sure when I'll have a chance to implement this myself, but a patch would be very welcome.
