Or neither? It was kind of a huge deal in DA2 and i would be shocked in our companions had no opinion on it.
So, which companions do you support the mages? Which ones support the templars?

The Templars have lost the ****ing plot. No one is supporting them.
Good enough.

Iron Bull might still have some Qunari ideas on mages ingrained in his mind.
Or maybe not.
He already seems to contradict everything about his people anyway.

Vivienne support circle.
Cole support mages and templar, but most mages.
Blackwall support both, but wants everything to be back the way it was.
Cassandra support chantry, but is questioning her faith.
Sera doesn't care, as long as we help the elves along the way.(Always need that neutral option.)
Iron Bull probably will support the winning side, he seems like a betting man, lol.
Varric will support whoever Hawke supported in DA: 2.
Dorian will obviously support the mages.
Solas doesn't care, as long as his goals are not interfere with. (I believe he is the Inquisition mage that Vivienne doesn't like.)
Lol my little guess.

Hopefully it's less of a huge deal in in Inquisition so we don't get more companions who are merely talking heads for their respective points of view than say, actual characters. But anyways.
Cassandra and Vivienne both seem like traditionalists so I don't think they'll support either side. They'll want things to go back like they were before the war.
Solas and Dorian will probably side with the mages.
Varric will be neutral,
Sera and Blackwall I can't see liking or supporting either side. Since both sides are misusing their power and getting a lot of people hurt in the process.
Don't know enough about Cole or Iron Bull yet.

I could maybe see Iron Bull being a bit more accommodating towards mages than the typical Qunari since he seems to have found enjoyment in a measure of freedom from the regimentation of the Qun. I don't think he'd advocate for them, but I can definitely see him sympathizing with them.
I imagine Dorian will be more aligned with the mages than the templars. He seems to still hold his homeland in some esteem so he likely feels that mages don't have to be so closely confined.
Vivienne would probably think they're overreacting. She's a proponent of the Circle, after all.
I'd be surprised if Cullen sided with the mages in any way. Same with Cassandra, though this one is more speculation since I don't know much about her.
Sera and Blackwall are wild cards (hah). There's nothing in what I've read of them to inform my opinion in any real way.

the way they have been emphasizing the breach and closing it, i dont see the mage templar conflict being anything but a side quest or two at this point... and im pretty sure most companions are sick of it and just want both sides to sit down and shut up

The worst part of Dragon Age II isn't going to be getting much focus in this game?
Fine by me!

I think it'll be more than a side quest or two....it'll probably something more akin to getting the support of the mages, dwarves, and elves in DAO. Along with the Orlesian Civil War.

If Vivienne is pro-circle, it might be fun to have a warrior who is militantly anti-circle.
"Mages should be free!"
"Are you a mage?"
"No, why?"

It seems to me that the issue is too far-reaching and volatile to have it relegated to such a small portion of the game. I actually hope that it gets some focus in this game, but I hope that it's handled more tactfully and just better than it was in DA2.

I doubt that. Its going to be a quest arc (like the DA quest arcs) in the game and a pretty significant factor in at least one instance and in one region from what we have seen so far. It might be a fairly minor part of a much larger puzzle but I think we will get main quests here and there about that leading up to its resolution. Though, maybe it will be pretty early in the game?

The Mage/Templar conflict of DA II no longer exists.
We have no idea what form the mage rebellion has taken.

By what little we know about the mage rebellion, it's roughly in the same sort of shape as the Templars. Their leadership is now decapitated as well and the recent description of the war in the Hinterlands says they are "setting fire to anyone who looks at them funny."

I think it's hard to say for some. They seem to be stuck in limbo in their ideals. Cassandra, Vivi (we don't exactly know what her future plans may be.. even if it's supporting the Circle system), possibly Cullen and Iron Bull (at least when it comes to the Qun's view on the same issues). I think a part of the game may be that these characters finally settle into their philosophy.

I got the impression from the demo that they might also be meddling with Fade Rifts to augment their power in some way. At least it seemed like Alexius was making use of them.

Maybe is not the biggest problem out there but the conflict continues to exist. I'm sure that every companion has it's own ideas.
Vivienne seems pro circle, she sees this war like something unneccesary.
Dorian probably believes in freedom, but maybe he has seen too much and wants something else.
Iron bull ....Tevinter is in war with his people, so he has probably the same idea than Vivienne, or worse.
Solas is a mystery... but he is an apostate, so...
Everyone else, who knows. Varric was very neutral in this matter. Sera and Blackwall might be focused in other things or they don't really care. Cassandra is pro chantry, but not pro-templar, maybe you can influence her. Cole? who knows.

Mages already proved they don't deserve on freedom or even independence pretty much shown hefty in dao and even more in da 2.Now it seems even worse what they are doing.I don't think that there will be many characters so insane to support mages freedom at best independent circle and that will be hardliners. When templars had good goal and point in da 2 now they are nuts as well as mages always were to the point they kill guy with showel because they think showel was staff (
rly bioware it is your idea of gray making them insane , stupid and petty?).So i doubt that mages and templar will get much of support at best templar goal will get support not they will.
Varric-Templar goal
Cassandra-Templar goal
Vivienne-Pro circle
Iron-Qunari so chances are that he will have qunari views on mages or at least part of it so rather templar goal.
Solas-apostate so there is chance that he is pro-mage or just don't care like morrigan as long he isn't in circle.
Dorian-pro mage
Sera-we don't know if she cares at all after all wild card.
Cole (if he is companion at all)- don't know hard to say(guy is mentally unstable)
Otuside companions
Cullen-templar goal
Leliana-templar goal
Scribe-don't know.

I think off of the Mage companions + Cole will support the Circle, hands down
Cassandra/Cullen/Sera will just want order restored
Iron Bull, maybe the Mages
as for the rest, I'm unsure.

Cassandra is the only Seeker left not going the way of her Order and acting like a rabid mage hunter. I don't think she's as clear cut as you think.
And Leliana never has the stomach to do any serious Annulment of Circles or the like. She always sees the innocents that must be protected first.
