This is really solving the wrong problem. You really don't want to be working in terms of configuration file templates. You want to work based off functional configuration requirements, and have the tool itself decide what the actual config file settings need to be. This is the core benefit of using Puppet over cfengine. Combine puppet with Augeas, and you make it really easy to modify config file settings in-place without using templates.
