Firstly, you need to do it in a manage_afterAdd(self,item,container) 
method:

def manage_afterAdd(self,item,container):
	''' Add a PageTemplate customizable by the site manager '''
	self.manage_addProduct['PageTemplates'].manage_addPageTemplate(
		'myid',text=open(filepath).read()
		)

Having methods like 'manage_addDTMLMethod' available from every folder
has been discouraged for quite a while due to collisions on this flat
namespace.
