If someone gets around to it they can add in root resize support via the patch I've posted to the list once or twice. I can maybe look at updating it for master and testing if I can find some time. It's a very short patch, but the testing is what I don't have time for at the moment, more of a priority thing. That would eliminate you having to upload multiple pre-sized templates.
