I've opened a PR here with the changes required #415

[ShaunWilders]

I can also confirm this bug. Creating a new page is fine, but editing and trying to change the template, it doesn't save the updated template value.

[ryanmitchell]

@ShaunWilders does this fix work for you? #415

[ShaunWilders]

@ryanmitchell it does. Just tested and the fix resolves the issue for me.

For context, we don't run multi-site, although we did set this up and then remove at one point; and we have entries and users in the database, but everything else is file based.
