Compiled templates are an unnecessary pain in maintance and packaging. If each module is to bring its own templates, compiling them in the build process becomes unnecessarily more complex. The current state of template mess can somewhat be attributed to this. Cheetah only partially supports dynamic templates. It does not support inheritence of dynamic templates. From its documentation: "There is no support for extending from a class that is not imported; e.g., from a template dynamically created from a string. Since the most practical way to get a parent template into a module is to precompile it, all parent templates essentially have to be precompiled."
