Sorry no. It took me two days to fix a template I got from the internet to display all the writing systems I want. Plus I had a manually fix a hardcoded value in the bibliography template to use French while I had to use the bibliography in an English context so references don't get screwed with space inserted before colons. My dissertation is filed \foreignlanguage{xxx}{yyy} and \textit and I hate it.

No. I have something to write, in addition to all the other things I do, and any time searching for commands or packages online to make things work is pure wasted. If Word had a better CVS and modular story I would have gladly stick with it.
