'Skeleton' is a long-established term in Unix where it refers to the
files initially copied to a newly-created home directory. That's an
exact analogue of what we're doing.
Except that there is nothing dynamic about /etc/skel. Nothing at all.
Also, it's tied to home folder creation, something which happens
exactly once, whereas these 'blueprints' can be run multiple times,
e.g. in TurboGears 2 to create new controller modules from within an
existing project.
Marrow's Blueprint system is already in use in the Contentment CMS for
site creation (happens once, generates the database structure),
component creation, theme creation, and alternate configuration
creation (e.g. for deployment).
Only the first of the above list happens once, and the last only
creates a single INI file after questioning the user. Quite the
variety of use cases from within a single application.
