 A drawback of <code>locate_template()</code> is that you can't ''really''
 use it to locate templates from within a plugin directory - which imo
 would make sense if you consider the number of plugins working with custom
 post types. I hope there's a slight chance that
 <code>locate_template_uri()</code> also supports plugin directories, so
 default styles could be packed right with the plugin.
