Capturing, refiling, and archiving all create a new entry at a target
location.  Yet each of these facilities has it’s own way to specify the
target.  Capture templates have the most powerful target specification
and refiling and archiving are both fairly limited.  For users that is
confusing and it prevents them from getting the most out of org-mode.  Is
there a technical reason for why different target specifications are
used or is it just historical?  Wouldn’t it make sense to use just one
target specification “language” and to use that everywhere?
