- I logged a job with Microsoft on this issue (files only show up in PowerPoint Online) and they advised this was as designed/a limitation that they weren't planning on resolving at this point in time. So I have advised my customers to use the templates from the desktop versions of the apps only.

To be fair, most of our Word and Excel templates contain elements (such as images overlays, certain style elements, etc.) which the browser versions of the apps can't currently cope with anyway so it's probably not such a bad thing. Once (if) the browser apps become as fully-functional as the desktop apps then I'd expect the template issue to be something that Microsoft address.
