Ability to add additional phtml to each shipping method

This was not possible in Magento 1 for shipping methods but was for payment methods. This makes shipping extension creators override phtmls every time. Could it be usefull to make sure we can do this in Magento 2?

To be clear, I want shipping method - custom template file, shipping method - custom template file (not required to add one tough)

shipping method or shipping carrier? They are different things. Shipping Carriers, yes totally.

A really useful technique is to propose example code of exactly how you would like it. It makes it concrete, more likely to be what you need, others can review publicly as well, etc. Don't spend too much time, optional, but it does help keep things moving along. We of course will review and make sure it fits in with the overall story.

+1 here as well -- thing is that around here most popular delivery method is parcel point delivery; while choosing delivery method one chooses a parcel point and picks it up from there (I think Amazon recently launched something like that as well). Traditional carriers may offer it as an additional shipping method.

To achieve it I added dropdown to the payment method list phtml file fully knowing that whoever does something like that in another extension there's going to be a conflict. Having an extra phtml block similar to saved CC would make this problem go away.
