This is a bit tricky and not fully documented.
If you have no or only only a single template defined, then
template selection is bypassed and you do not get a chance
to press C to get to the customization buffer. This is to
please John Wiegley :) who only uses a single capture template
and rightfully wanted to lose the extra key press. As soon
as you have at least 2 templates, you will get the menu and
also the chance to press `C'.
I am not quite sure what to do about it, documenting it makes
things look more complicated as they are.
