Hello! I failed to understand this part of the template expansion, and
I'm hoping you will consider this an improvement. I mistook the %\n for
a newline and glossed over the description. I'm hoping this makes it
clearer that it's a sequence of placeholders.
I haven't signed the CLA, but I'm hoping this change is small enough for
that not to be necessary. (Although I don't have a problem with signing
the CLA if you prefer that.)

"orgmanual.org" is not (yet?) the official documentation, and is lagging
behind "org.texi". I applied your suggestions to the latter, and to
`org-capture-templates' docstring.
Thank you.
