Many thanks to cffilion for this script that will copy the first send from the parent track to the selected child track. This way if you keep your verb sends at the top of your track list, the verb send that is on your parent track will be duplicated on the child track that you just imported via track templates. It will be a separate step but still a big time saver.
This will show up in reapack soon enough but here is the link
