There are different ways to use form templates: 1. use setElementTemplate, setFormTemplate, set...Template methods. 2. use setElementTemplate with the second argument set too so that your template will only be set for the element passed as parameter. 3. override with your own form subclass. The prefered ways are 1 and 2. With the soon to come release, you will also have the possibility to change grouped elements templates... > 2.

Don't modify the methods in QuickForm directly. Write your own subclass or process FUNCTION (as opposed to METHOD) and pass it the result of $form->getSubmitValues() method.
