Hello:
this is another small patch to org-capture.el to make sure that after
completion it returns to the same place from where it was invoked. This way
users won't loose track of where they were before capturing something. The
minimal setup to reproduce the case where capture fails to return to the
place of its invocation is attached.
Best,
Alex

Bastien:
did you mean the reply on the Capture Abort thread? This is a different
bug, unrelated to that the Capture Abort one. In this case capture doesn't
abort, but returns to a different place in buffer than the one it was
invoked from.
Thanks,
Alex

Indeed, sorry for the confusion.
The thing is: I can't reproduce the problem, even when following the
capmove.el instructions.
Can you reproduce the bug using latest maint or master branch?
If so, a simple description of the steps will be easier than a
file like capmove.el.
Thanks,

Bastien:
yes, I can reproduce the bug using capmove.el with the latest master. It is
less salient in the small file that capmove makes, but very obvious in big
files where you get to a completely different place after capture finished.
Description of the steps:
1. open the same org file in two frames
2. make sure the positions in those frames are different
3. try to capture something from one of those frames
4. after capture finished, the positions in those frames become the same,
i.e. the frame where capture was invoked copied the position from another
frame and lost its context that was there before capture.
Best,
Alex

I don't see this -- see this quick video here:
http://bzg.fr/u/org-capture-bug.ogv
Maybe this depends on the capture template itself?
This is with a recent Emacs version from trunk, and Org 8.2.6-1.
