Option to allow Track Templates to also include track audio and/or MIDI data of given track.

I am not sure how feasible this would be, but as per title.   Maybe even include the option to include track automation data.

If this were possible, then MIDI Track Templates could also include synth initialisation event, like volume, pan, filter , resonance, etc.

It would also be a more efficient way to transfer tracks (including data) from one project to another.

If you save the "template" as a project file , you can effectively get that result by dragging the project file into an existing project from the Browser. You could even create a dedicated folder for such "template projects" in your Content folder. I have used this method to update pre-audio MIDI projects by dragging them into a new project started from an appropriate project template.

Project templates and track templates are very different beasts...

Yes, I understand. I'm suggesting to use an actual CWP project file as a sort of enhanced track template to bring tracks into an existing project with  MIDI/Audio content included as desired. It obviously has shortcomings, the main one being that the track output and send assignments in the 'template project' need to be compatible with the busing in the target project. Also dropping a project file into an existing project still has the slightly buggy behavior if creating a superfluous "Matrix" track and one additional audio track. Like most workarounds, it's an imperfect solution.
