Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I'd like to express my immense gratitude to the contributors of dotnet/templating! Your tool has been incredibly useful to me, and I've been enjoying using it. However, I've encountered a challenge that I could use some help with.

I've created this template, which can be found here:
https://github.com/bohems/service-template

Subsequently, I generate a template using the following command:
dotnet new service -n ServiceName -F net8.0

This results in all instances of 'Template' being replaced with 'ServiceName' which is exactly what I want.

However, within this repository, there's a specific file I'm concerned about:
https://github.com/bohems/service-template/blob/main/Template/Tools/Template.DbSeeder/seed-settings.json

Within this file, there's a key named "outputTemplate", and unfortunately, it gets renamed too, which is not what I intend:

{
  "Serilog": {
    "MinimumLevel": "Information",
    "WriteTo": [
      {
        "Name": "Console",
        "Args": {
          "formatter": "",
          // In this key, the word "Template" gets renamed, but I do not want this to occur.
          "outputTemplate": "[{Timestamp:HH:mm:ss} {Level:u3}] {Message:lj}{NewLine}{Exception}"
        }
      }
    ]
  },
  "ConnectionStrings": {
    "DefaultConnection": "",
  }
}

Could you provide guidance on how to address this issue, perhaps a way to exclude this file from being renamed, or a workaround to prevent renaming of that particular key?

Describe the solution you'd like.
