[oXygen-user] code template for identity transform

[Jarno Elovirta]

I disagree here, ³id² is a named template I use on almost all of my projects
and it¹s always to do with id attributes, never identity trasform templates.
I personally favor ³copy² name for those. Thus I think the code template
should remain unnamed by default.

Cheers,

Jarno
