Unfortunately, that's true for the current code.  Julien Anguenot and
I started working on this problem (along with some other aspects of
the XML vs. HTML behavior) based on the Zope 3 implementation for page
templates.  The work isn't done yet, though the aspect you're
interested in is pretty straightforward.

That's only for the Zope 3 version of the code, however.  For now,
your best bet may be to subclass the PageTemplateFile class (or
whichever derived class of that that's relevant to you) and override
the _cook_check() method to do what you need it to do.  If you're
using a file-system view, you likely need to arrange for your new
class to be used for some new filename extension; I'm not sure how to
arrange for that.
