I agree, this is the best method. Although probably you mean C-y 
instead of C-w.

For the record, this requires you to set up 
`org-structure-template-alist' to include python and emacs-lisp. 
For example, I use p and E, for python and emacs-lisp, so in my 
.emacs I have:

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (eval-after-load "org"
         '(progn
            (add-to-list 'org-structure-template-alist
                         '("E"
                           "#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp\n?\n#+END_SRC"
                           "<src 
                           lang=\\"emacs-lisp\\">\n\n?</src>"))
            (add-to-list 'org-structure-template-alist
                         '("p"
                           "#+BEGIN_SRC python\n?\n#+END_SRC"
                           "<src 
                           lang=\\"python\\">\n\n?</src>"))))
#+END_SRC
 
I even use the method in message-mode, for writing emails with 
code, like I just did now =)

Best,
