I think explaining how to use MIDI is separate from the Templates issue. In my opinion, the templates are intended to be useful for doing real LilyPond work, rather than primarily as tutorial elements (although they serve a tutorial function as well). With this view in mind, it seems to me to be best to include the \midi block, with a comment that says to eliminate the block (or comment it out) in order to eliminate MIDI output.
