When you Revert a template, it asks you the following:

Are you sure you want to revert the template called 'whatever'?
(templateid: 887)

My question is how do I find the ID of a default template?

It would be nice to include all the template ID's in the Control Box
like it adds Last Updated information.
This would make database browsing easier.

Showing the ID on the "Edit Templates" page would be useless. You don't need to know the ID.

ok.
Well, as for myself, I spend just as much time in the database
as I do the adminCP.
It was just a thought and in my case, it would be beneficial so I wouldnt have to sort through 20+ pages of templates in the database but instead go directly to the ID of the template.

Well search by the title instead of by ID? I don't really see any kind of benefit in knowing the ID number. Template names are unique just like the IDs. Plus IDs are useless on their own since templates are all pointed to using the template name.
