First, "lazarus_dci_file.dci" was renamed to "codetemplates.dci". See

I guess this is not related to your issue.

A new Makro edit box?
No, code templates are managed in Tools -> Code Templates ...

There was another change. Templates in the Ctrl-J list are now sorted and
work as expected always.

I admit I have not added much templates myself. I have used the existing
ones.
Maybe there is something in the common workflow that I don't know.
