Description
I'll often need to output documents using a Word template (where the ultimate target is actually Google Docs instead of Microsoft word).
With my limited design skills, I've messed around with the default template a bit in the past with mixed results.
I think there would be value in establishing a centralized repo or gallery for community-created templates, and it would probably get more traction if it was "official" in some sense, perhaps linked to the documentation here: https://quarto.org/docs/output-formats/ms-word-templates.html
Thoughts?

Research direction
Start by reviewing the Word templates documentation at https://quarto.org/docs/output-formats/ms-word-templates.html and the proposal for a centralized community gallery. The scope is not defined; done would require an agreed repository or gallery approach and a clear decision about how it should be linked from the documentation.
