When I capture a new item to org-mode where the template includes %i
(capture active region), other placeholders in the region are replaced
(evaluated).

For example, capturing with the template

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
  ("t" "Todo" entry
   (file+headline "todo.org" "Tasks")
   "* TODO %?\n  %i\n %a\n")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

while the following region is active:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;; ("w" "URL"     entry (file+headline "notes.org"   "URLs")
;;    "* %^{Title}\n\n  Source: %u, %c\n\n  %i")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

it will asks for 'Title' because the captured region contains the
placeholder %^{Title}.


This feels wrong, and is most likely a bug.
