Hi,

Like I said in a comment on this issue, the restriction was added by
Godefroid and me at the Neanderthal sprint II if I remember.
Before that, it worked perfectly without this restriction.
This was needed to simplify the implementation of the
shared_templates_userwarning branch, the first implementation.
But I'm not sure if it's needed with the reimplementation Martin and I
have done the second day. :)
