The Excel spreadsheetiness of ODK's form design wins the hearts of many in terms of using something familiar to code up the survey/database, but when faced with a more complex data management problem, having some 'templates' could be an interesting starter solution for many newcomers.
It seems there is a shared willing about the creation of a more "formal" place to share differnet working forms with the community. It would be really motivating and helpful for - not only new - users.
What about ready to 'copy and paste' structure of the XLSForm. When templates of this library have the same order of columns that help users to construct XLSForm by just copy and paste parts from different templates.
In all my XLSForms I use the same columns and this makes extremely easy to reuse parts of my other forms when I need them.
