It would be quite useful if I could use currentfile in place of "path/to/fi=
le" in the various Target patterns.  That is, it would be nice to write som=
ething like:

(setq org-capture-templates
   '(("j" "Journal" entry (file+headline currentfile "Journal") "* %a\n\n%i=
"))
     ("t" "To Do" entry (file+headline currentfile "Tasks") "* TODO %? %i\n=
")))

Thanks.

I like the idea of being able to tell capture to use the current file.

This patch against latest Org allows you to use (currentfile) like this:

,----
| (setq org-capture-templates
|   '(("j" "Journal" entry (currentfile) "* %a\n\n%i")))
`----

Let me know if you find this useful.
