16994	Add filter to array of template files to locate	johnbillion		"It's not possible to modify the array of template files that's looped over in order to locate the template file to use on a site.

These arrays are set in the various `get_whatever_template()` functions (eg `get_taxonomy_template()`, `get_archive_template()`, `get_home_template()`).

A theme framework I'm building adds several new possible template files. Some of these have higher priority than existing templates, and some have lower. Currently I have to use the `template_include` filter and pass an array of possible template files through `locate_template()` again due to the varying priority of the templates.

If there was a filter on the array used in `get_query_template()` this would be easy and would remove the need for `locate_template()` to be called twice."	enhancement	closed	normal		Template	3.1	normal	duplicate	has-patch
