Even if it works with this definition, it's only a workaround.

,----[ C-h v org-remember-templates RET ]
| org-remember-templates is a variable defined in `org-remember.el'.

[...]

| The fourth element is optional and can specify a destination file for
| remember items created with this template.  The default file is given
| by `org-default-notes-file'.  If the file name is not an absolute
| path, it will be interpreted relative to `org-directory'.
| 
| An optional fifth element can specify the headline in that file that should
| be offered first when the user is asked to file the entry.  The default
| headline is given in the variable `org-remember-default-headline'.  When
| this element is `top' or `bottom', the note will be placed as a level-1
| entry at the beginning or end of the file, respectively.

[...]

| You can customize this variable.

`----

So the 4th and 5th element are optional and should use the values of
`org-default-notes-file' and `org-remember-default-headline' if not
specified.  But that's not done for the headline in my case...

Bye,
