You can certainly fall back to the "normal" Zope idiom, which mixes
templates-as-software, templates-as-content, and other content objects
in a "content" folder.  What you would be trading off is some of the
clarity achieved by separating software from content, in exchange for
the convenience of managing all of them in the same place.

As an alternative, you could create more folders under the skins tool,
and add them to your skin path(s);  these folders could then help you
organize the templates.
