Technically, there is no problem. In fact, we could have
Configuration.getTemplate(String templatePath, Locale locale, String
encoding) and
Configuration.getTemplate(String basePath, String resourcePath, Locale
locale, String encoding)
and the latter would imply that we're using acquisition. Of course, this
would mean
a) we have one more getTemplate() method - maybe we should revisit where do
we use others and axe those we don't use because most of them are
convenience methods anyway;
b) the acquisition logic moves into either Configuration or TemplateCache.
Moving it into TemplateCache looks like being the better idea since then the
results of acquisition lookup could also be subject to caching (=better
performance).

As I said, I like the idea but would like to hear the opinions of fellow
developers (at least Jonathan) before actually jumping at implementing the
feature.
