A few try-outs, same as above and all depends on that
"semi-transparent-wireframe" template.

Add a layer mask to it as Greyscale copy of layer  Then probably colour invert
the layer mask.

No need for reduced opacity on template layer. At least that is non-destructive
to the template.

Once set up should allow your workflow as with Gimp 2.18
