What we have now is awful.  edit rsyncd.conf.download0 in 2 places.
Copy that file to rsyncd.conf.download0[2345] and
rsyncd.conf.download-rdu0[123].  Commit same change to all files.


Could do $group_of_some_kind w/o templates I suppose.  Still leaves
the editing in 2 places (which I've forgotten to do the second one as
recently as yesterday) though.  The template makes that one edit.
