Is it possible to change the default template for new devices?

Specifically, I’m using two WiFi AP’s, so my WiFi config looks like this:

wifi:
  networks:
  - ssid: !secret wifi_ssid
    password: !secret wifi_password 
  - ssid: !secret wifi2_ssid
    password: !secret wifi2_password

Rather than the default with the single set. I’ve been copy/pasting the block for new devices, but haven’t had much luck figuring out how to change the new device template to add it in automatically when a new device is created, if it’s possible to do so?

Many thanks in advance!

Little about my experience and habbit.

Actually instead of using NEW DEVICE feature, creating new YAML file with whatever I want inside, from any template etc. andf then Install firmware to device.

As well extensibely using packages.
File common\_common_.yaml contains all the same configuration for all types and chips: api, wifi, ota, …
File common\_base_.yaml contains lot of substitutions used across devices.

Then just put in device YAML:

packages:
  _base_: !include common/__base__.yaml
  common: !include common/_common_.yaml
