How about a Layers and Event Template collection?

This came up in the chat, and Squishy Rex took a liking to the idea, I had the idea when I was being taken through baby steps by Bossedit8 on how to set up a proper generator-spawns-after-boss-watcha-ma-hoozit-then-despawns-woo-saved-the-day-thing, and I think that using example templates would be an amazing way to help more people get into using Layers and Events, people can copy these and then remember how these are, and even modify them to try new and interesting events.

Would anyone be down for this? It could be great for newer players, and I'm sure most experts here would be able to make them easily for people like me who suck with these kinds of things.

Yeah, I would like to help with this. I'd like to make a template for basic moving layers, if that's possible.

As I said in IRC, it may also be good for more mini game based levels as well like the Toad Houses and Hammer Bros. battles like in Mario Builder. They come as a working template using the default graphics of which you can change graphics and object positions as you see fit, however the mechanics remain. If I get a chance I might make a few different Blockade and Toad House templates.
