My impression of the template system is that it is about designing
relatively fixed user macros on a flexible base.  So most of the keys
are set inside the package, and are not exposed to the user. On the
other hand, packages such as kvoptions, pgfkeys and l3keys are more
aimed at run-time options for the user.  Of course, I might be very
wrong in this: template is very clever and I may have missed things.

I will await with interest.
