I personally like the concept/idea of the new feature — it allows for a more generic and larger categorization of sorts than just categorizing does, and will allow for more consistency over whatever wiki you go to (including non-English wikis, where you wouldn't even understand category names). However, a few concerns:
 * the size of the dialog — is this new feature so important that it must take up your entire screen? Or even more, because I have to scroll down to read all of it.
 * I can't publish new templates or edit existing templates anymore without at least indicating the template type.
 * current categorization may not cover all uses and "I don't know" might end up being disproportionally large on wikis where it doesn't. Also, "I don't know" is not really accurate, since I'm sure we do know what it's for, but it's just not in the options provided?

Just in general, I think it's a bit too "in your face" and I've had complaints already because our wiki extensively uses templates (even with users who don't usually edit in template namespace) for internationalization amongst other things. Every minor edit to already existing templates now requires editors to indicate a template type.

What about a dropdown menu with a "What is this?" behind it that links to Help:Template Types?
