Description:	According to the [wiki documentation on using templates|https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Using+Templates], any section is valid for inclusion as a template without being marked. {quote} This works even when the section name referenced in parentheses is not defined as a template as in the case of the "not-a-template" section. {quote} This pjsip.conf: {noformat} [endpoint] type=endpoint context=default allow=!all,ulaw direct_media=no [alice1](endpoint) {noformat} Results in error: {noformat} WARNING[30560] config.c: Inheritance requested, but category 'endpoint' does not exist, line 12 of /var/tmp/asterisk-testsuite/4601eff4190a32b130a52e1a84b03a00/run_1/ast2/etc/asterisk/pjsip.conf ERROR[30560] res_sorcery_config.c: Contents of config file 'pjsip.conf' are invalid and cannot be parsed {noformat} This issue can be resolved by adding \(!) to \[endpoint] line, but this is a change from previous version and does not match documented behavior.
Comments:	By: Matt Jordan (mjordan) 2014-11-03 15:14:15.223-0600 I'll grant that it doesn't match the documentation. Are you sure that 1.8/11 (today) allows templating without the usage of {{( ! )}}? The Inheritance error getting kicked back is not from sorcery, but rather from the default {{config}} processing engine. By: Scott Griepentrog (sgriepentrog) 2014-11-03 15:56:23.657-0600 This issue affects 12, 13, and trunk only.  Isolated to changed introduced in http://svnview.digium.com/svn/asterisk?view=revision&revision=425383 (...385) By: Scott Griepentrog (sgriepentrog) 2014-11-03 15:59:26.211-0600 To be clear, 1.8/11 allow inclusion of sections not marked as a template in current revisions, and 12/13/trunk allow the same also but only prior to r425383.
