Yes, seems better.

Other option would be to group the include templates, e.g.:
pkgsel/include -> pkgsel/include/packages (or pkgsel/include/package-list)
pkgsel/install-recommends -> pkgsel/include/install-recommends

Renaming the old template isn't perfect, but we've had other such changes 
between Debian releases and consistency is IMO more important in the long 
run.
