Sorry, but I don't have a pointer to a pool of presentation templates
for you. This is actually complicated due to the fact that PythonPoint
knows nothing about such layout templates, but makes use of external
styles only for the text bits.

So I understand your message as an implicit feature request for adding
some new tag like the stylesheet one used inside the presentation tag,
but with the effect of loading some graphics to be reused on each slide
inside a section. That would make sense to me. Is this what you want?

Note that, I'm just trying to find out what is needed, I'm not rushing
to implement it... ;-)
