Thanks Nicolas. One more issue. In the past, non-interactive escapes
were expanded when the capture buffer was displayed, which enabled me to
see what I had just clipped while entering the interactive data. Now
non-interactive escapes are expanded at the end of the capture process.

Take the following template:

(setq org-capture-templates
      '(("a" "Appointment" entry
         (file "~/org/inbox.org")
         "* %^{Appt}\n %^t%?\n %U\n %a\n\n %i")))

In the past, if I called this from the org-mode website with a region of
text selected, I would get a buffer that looked like this before
completing the interactive prompts:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* 
 %^t%?

 Org mode is for keeping notes, maintaining TODO lists, planning
 projects, and authoring documents with a fast and effective plain-text
 system.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

After the recent changes, the initial capture buffer looks like this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* 
 %^t%?
 %U
 %a

 %i
 --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Thanks,
Matt
