Comment(by simonp):
Updated patch with doco, extra strings for language added since original
patch, test output (xpath, nr elements selected by xpath, a subtemplate
and the element in the metadata record with xlink attribute)
Can we finish the vote on this please asap? I don't want this to get too
far behind any other changes in the pipeline.
Thanks,
Simon

Comment(by heikki):
hi Simon,
small questions :
- do you think that for the average GN user, it's feasible to expect they
know enough XSLT to write the title-extractor ? Would it be an option to
automatically suggest title candidates (for example list all elements
wrapping a gco:CharacterString, let the user choose one, and then create
the title-extractor XSLT on the fly) ?
- the Do You Really Want to Do This check, made me think: is it useful to
implement the reverse operation also ? For a given sub-template, the user
could say 'normalize it' (or what's a good term) and it would be merged
into all docs that have it linked, and then delete the subtemplate ?
kind regards
Heikki Doeleman

They already have to enter an XPath so probably best in the short term to
accept an XPath of a title as an easier optional alternative to the
extract title XSLT. This would make things somewhat easier for the user
not familiar with XSLT - I can implement this pretty easily. Ultimately
the title and the xpath should be a pick option as you suggest that could
be offered to the user in the metadata viewer perhaps.
I had also thought of the opposite operation as you suggest and that it
could be implemented in the manage directory interface (and there are
others that are needed there too) but for the moment the immediate need is
to break up some large records (that break the editor!) and allow users
with existing records to separate out common content.
As usual so many things that we still need to do 
Cheers and thanks very much for your comments!

I've updated the command to allow an XPath to be specified to extract the
title from the subtemplate and reattached the patch. Also updated the
images in the proposal to reflect these changes. The xslt can still be
specified as an alternative.
Cheers,
Simon
