Thanks, I tried it out and it seems to work. Hopefully it will be useful
for others too.

Another thing I've been meaning to ask: org-capture-mode-hook seems to be
triggered twice, why is that? It was also present in the previous version
of org that I  used, 7.8.02 and I can confirm now it's there in the latest
git version also. If it's not a bug but a desired feature can I disable it
from running twice? I'd like to attach some code to it and getting the
results twice is slightly annoying.

Regards,
Kalev
