I was trying to contribute while reducing typing to a minimum to
reduce pain, and ended up making it hard for you to read. Apologies.

remember ideas i've gathered over the past few months

=================
+ respect pop-up-windows
+ if the target file for org-remember is already known
use the control variables from that file
that way you can have your todo sequence available
+ if org-remember does not recognize the type,
abort completely
+ org-remember should be reentrant
able to call itself from inside itself if you have a note
you want to add that is not related to the one you are
adding.
+ org-remember-templates takes a character
can it take a function key?
+ emacs-w3m tight integration with org-mode
- might be interesting to use an org-mode file to store
bookmarks. this would require changing the way
bookmarks are added, to store them in a way similar to
org-remember.
- perhaps antenna can also be integrated with org-mode.

+ org merge org-annotate-file with remember code
to allow annotating anything
also have a hook for opening files and w3m pages etc. that
will print in the minibuffer "this file/page/directory is
annotated. press ... to see the annotation".
[2008-10-27 Mon 22:02] [Extensions in the contrib directory
- The Org Manual]
+ brainstorm: support asking for the template
after the note was entered.
this might complicate things too much.
this is a tricky one to design, but the philosophy is that
the time between having an idea and entering it should be
minimal. choosing the template type is a cognitive burden
before you enter the idea.
so dedicate a remember shortcut to the concept of "let me
enter this now". c-c c-c, it asks you details like is this
a todo item? and which file does it go to?
you would have a remember template that allows for other
remember templates to be chosen after you enter the note.
ideally, it works like this:
1. call org-remember like that
2. enter note
3. c-c c-c
4. choose whether it's a note, journal, or shopping item
5. if it's note or journal, choose whether it's todo
6. if it's note or journal, choose tags (RET for none)
7. show completed buffer
8. y to accept; n to edit
nested plists?
