Got a good answer over at emacs.stackexchange
<https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/55754/how-to-run-functions-inside-auto-insert-template>
that
uses Emacs text-buffer lore. Still, it seems like org-mode should be able
to auto-run in-line code just like the solution does. Alas, someday I hope
to be able to just tackle a problem like this and submit the solution. Hope
springs eternal (which Google-Gmail just auto-completed!)...
