Hi Neil,

You are correct.  However, if you have defined org-agenda-diary-file, an
org entry is added via org-agenda-diary-entry-in-org-file.

Maybe.  The post was vague.  I read it the other way.  Shérab?

For TODO, org-agenda-capture (bound to "k" I believe?) already does what
you think Shérab wanted, I would have thought?  What is missing?

For me, looking at dates in the agenda is about checking availability
and this usually means I am looking at creating a new appointment.  "i
d" is perfect for this.
