Comment:

 I have a requirement on my current project to let users choose between a
 regular and full-width template for a custom post type. No problem, I
 thought, But then I discovered template selection is only possible for
 regular posts, and not for custom post types.

 I figured there must be some difficult obstacle to implementing this, but
 now I see that someone has already implemented it, over a year and half
 ago, but nobody has bothered to land the patch? What exactly is the hold-
 up here? All I see in this thread is quibbling by people who don't even
 seem to understand what page templates are for.
