I have this new system, in which I create a new subtree for every paper I
grade. I'd love to have the new subtree automatically populated by a
mostly-empty table on cration. Is this something I can do on a per-file
basis; or perhaps even something I can change with every level 1 heading?
I can think of a couple uses for this, actually.
Thx,
matt

I'm fond of org-structure-template-alist, but it might not be powerful
enough for what you want here. On a per file basis you could bind some
letter in org-structure-template-alist. ATM it cannot guess how to insert
a subtree. But there's org-insert-subheading.

Something I do alot of is have Org Capture templates as files. This lets me
write a more complex capture template (in my case for one of several
“roles” that I take on ad-hoc but recurring basis during meetings).
I call the template with an entry like the following in
org-capture-templates.
("Mg" "Grammarian"
entry
(file+headline "~/Documents/OrgMaster/org/Toastmasters.org" "Miscellaneous
and Non-Goal roles 2015")
(file "~/.init/emacs/org-capture-templates/grammarian.org_template")
:jump-to-captured t :immediate-finish t)
In this specific case, it places the entry under a special pre-defined Org
heading, but I could always call org-capture with a `C-0' (zero) prefix to
insert a template at point.
I can edit the template file as things change, and it can be pretty complex
(some of my represent Projects: A header, several sub headers as tasks,
etc.).
