Sounds like a good idea. To implement this I would change the Driver.php
to replace strings like:
@@comment_placeholder@@
@@ticket_url@@ etc.
Those templates should be linked  to a queue (like the current states
and priorities etc.) You can link more as one template to a queue. And a
template should contain the definition for the recipient role it may be
used for. (it may only used for creators, or for everybody execpt creators)
or for a specified e-mail adres.
Also they get a priority.

If a queue contains multiple templates, which matches for the e-mail
recipient, the one with the highest priority will be used.
