Ah, the org-capture code condition-cases quit. At least we know that the
problem is in `org-capture-fill-template'!

I can't remember off the top of my head if there's a way to tell emacs
to actually debug on quit, even if quit is handled by `condition-case'.

Another thing you can try is edebugging `org-capture-fill-template' and
stepping through it, and just see if anything weird happens. See the
Elisp manual for how to edebug, if you haven't before.

Does it only happen for the "t" template? What's the "t" template look
like?
