There's kind of a sneaky way you can do this. Make your template project a repeating project. Now when you want to make a copy, you mark the project complete (thus generating a new copy), then mark the template incomplete once again. Might be helpful to keep the templates in a dropped folder so they don't show up in your lists (obviously, you'll want to move the new project out!) You'll probably want to make the new project not repeat. Also, you can't use the Undo feature to toggle the status of the template project!
