This should be possible now...

1) create the templates you want, using your editor of choice
2) create macros that change the value of 'editor' to call a script/etc.
that processes the reply+template and calls your editor, then set 'editor'
back to the default, eg:

macro index r :set editor=replyscript<enter><reply>:set editor=default<enter>

With forms of this method the "template" isn't even limited to a text-based
construct, it can really be anything at all.
