Summary: template set is not updated based on template file

Initial Comment:
I can see that template set (default and customs) will not updated in the database when you change the template files for a module (in upgrade) and do everything like this:
- update the module
- clear caches using admin -> system-> maintenance 
- set template overwrite to yes

with alysys i can see templates and update them in the databse.
IMO Altsys should be added in the next xoops version as optional module.
OR
better if you change that system -> templates to work like Altsys (show all templates (files and databases) ) and can be copy the template files into the database.

Message:
NO - now we dont need db:file.html and online template manager based on
import from mysql. Templates are for designers. They change template.html
and should see the effect without any template manager operation and system
CMS knowledge. 

In this moment I don't know  ( without check) from where SMARTY take file

1. direct from module/templates/file.html 
2. themes/Your_theme/ modules/module_name/file.html ( good idea - all site
vision in one place )
3. db:file.ftml

Templates Manager -> Forced file generation > All
modules -> report OK

The above will just create html template files in themes/YOUR_THME folder
which you can create them manually.
IMO the current template manager do nothing.

we should have something like Altsys but with more GUI options.

Message:
I have the same problem, Templates Manager -> Forced file generation > All
modules -> report OK but NO effect. ( Template overwrite set YES ).
Not funny is that template file changes works sometimes without Template
Manager and steps
- update the module
 - clear caches using admin -> system-> maintenance
Why?  no direct SMARTY from var but from db like this ?: 
<{include file="db:xfguestbook_item.html" msg=$msg[i]}>

include path/template_file.html must work and always update ;)
