I’ve been working around it by creating a goal with “[template]” in the name and tagging all tasks in it with #template. Since you can duplicate a goal, it works “well enough”. I find it very useful because I have certain goals (which I guess could be better expressed as projects once they land) that I do every month. It’s basically a form of a checklist where each step is a separate task so I can e.g. defer it if it can’t be done immediately but otherwise I have a convenient reminder of all the steps that I need to execute.
But a more native support for this would be great - the “template” goal I have still kinda clutters the view, doesn’t natively let me rename it on creation (have to edit the name afterwards) etc.

This should also be the case for projects when they come out.
To work around I am creating a life area that is templates and putting those goals in there, then I can duplicate from there.

Best case Projects can be imported and exported as a simple MD list with indentations. Being able to save this in one of the MD-based PKM apps you’d catch two flies with one stone and make importing from other apps a breeze.

It could be for any project as well
