Drupal8 concept for selecting templates form the ui

template chooser

Drupal8 is pretty awesome, but its a problem that you cant choose fromt the ui which template to use. Sure you can overwrite whats there (node--article.html.twig) but that dont give the end user a chance to later change in the site & can end up in even more templates & clutter.

template suggestions

Make it easy to provide a template suggestion for entities, blocks, pages, nodes, fields, menues, username, everything that have a template you should be able to give a suggestion.

class selector

A prepopulated list of classes that can be selected for a template.

The modules userbase is sitebuilders & themes that wants to provide variations for a site, developers dont have to provide templates after a site is build, and can rely on the theme to provide all the variations.
