Hi,  
Is there a way to configure multiple output ports in a (dashboard) template? Or is it being planned?

Today I have to tag my message with some destination property and pass it through a switch node. Would be nice to have the ability to do `this.send([msg1,msg2,...])`, from within the template, like in function nodes.

Dashboard 1 - no and as it is depreciated, not ever likely.  
Dashboard 2 - no, but there is a [feature request](https://github.com/FlowFuse/node-red-dashboard/issues/433).

PS, please add tags when discussing dashboards to avoid confusion.

#dashboard-2 tag for newer FlowFuse dashboard AKA Dashboard 2.0

thanks
