Bug 750973

Custom templates for topics:

In the Content Spec header:

Alias: <aliasname> = <Topic.ID>
...
Alias: <aliasname> = <Topic.ID>


In the Content Spec:

 Here is my new concept [A: <aliasname>, URL=http://www.newconcept.com]


So for example:

Alias Concept_template=43



  Here is my new concept [A: Concept_template, URL=http://www.newconcept.com]


The effect:

Clone topic 43 to a new topic. Change the title to "Here is my new concept", add the URL value to it, and set a bit in the Content mapping table to says: "This xml created by the CSProcessor".

Now, on build, for each topic check that bit. If that bit is set, then use the xml from the database only if it has "modified" revisions. Otherwise, use the message "This topic does not have xml yet".

This allows users to specify custom templates, but also to build books that graphically show what has and has not been written yet.
