New Comment: While this is indeed trivial to fix, what exactly is the point of loading a zero-length "template"? There is no real point in loading a zero-length template, I just encounter the problem while setting up stuff, I had just not added any body to my template yet. Although it may not happen often, sometimes for one reason or another there is no body in a template, and there shouldn't be an error if there is. This would be a one line fix, I don't see the harm in fixing something that causes a warning.
