I was thinking that a separate command would allow binding to a single
key, but history should help a lot. Don't know why I didn't try it.
Thanks.

Yes.
(More generally it might be possible in principle to mark specific
entries and then move the marked entries, like marking files in dired,
but that would be kind of complicated in org.)

Different.
If you are on a previously remembered entry called "granny smith", and
you want to file under /food/fruit/apple, but apple does not exist
(/food/fruit is all that exists), then you could type
/food/fruit/apple and org-refile would 1. create apple and 2. put
the entry under point underneath apple.
At present, org-refile will not let you enter the apple part. Perhaps
I am missing something here.

You could, for example, type a sequence of letters that appear in that
order anywhere in the target, case insensitively, to select an entry.
It is thrillingly efficient.
Maybe anything.el has a similar mechanism.
