I say dealers choice? a warning if its over 30 lines or so for those
that are new to it? I mean i should know what is in the clipboard
before i hit the remember key.

Another idea that i have been thinking about is 'remember-here'  or
'remember at point' where i can use a remember template to insert in
the current line in the current buffer. Either using the current
remember mode templates or another separate one, it could be argued
either way.

as for terminal vs X, that is quite tricky, but %c could be disabled
in windowing environments.
