validate_mail_template() only looked at placeholder names, and "{{#claims}}" is
not a placeholder -- so an unclosed block or a stray "{{/claims}}" passed the
check and rendered as itself: the member would read the marker in their mail.
Repeat markers are now checked structurally: every one names a block the template
actually has, openers and closers pair up in order, blocks do not nest (the
renderer does not support it either), and the subject takes no markers at all.
Each case explains what is wrong and what is missing.
The same check runs before sending, not just before saving: the templates are
plain files in the store and can be edited outside CCMA, where refusing to send
beats mailing a marker. Saving several edited templates now validates all of
them before writing the first, so a mistake in one no longer leaves the others
half-saved.

The placeholder chooser showed repeat blocks as "{{#claims}} … {{/claims}}" and
inserted exactly that on double-click -- the ellipsis is a label, so the saved
template rendered a literal "…" per claim instead of the claim.
Chooser rows are data now: each carries the text it reads as and, separately,
the snippet it inserts. A block contributes a complete, ready-to-edit block with
a sample line built from its own placeholders, and lands on a line of its own
when the cursor sits behind existing text.
Covered from both sides: the snippets are checked against the template validator
and renderer, and a UI test drives the real dialog -- insert, save, send -- and
asserts the mail carries actual claim lines. The Tk tests share one root (the
icon library binds its images to the first one) and skip without a display.

The wording of the dunning and SEPA pre-notification mails was hard-coded in
Python, so adjusting a single sentence required a new release. Both texts now
live in plain text templates that ship as defaults, are copied into the store's
templates/mail/ directory on first start and can be edited there or under
Optionen -> E-Mail-Vorlagen; an existing file is never overwritten and a deleted
one is restored from the shipped default.
A template carries its subject in the first line and the body after a blank
line. Placeholders use the same {{ ... }} syntax as the document templates and
share their member/organization values, so a name means the same thing in a
letter and in the mail that carries it. Unknown placeholders are rejected while
editing instead of during a send run, a line holding nothing but placeholders
that render empty is dropped, and {{#claims}} ... {{/claims}} repeats per entry.
