My remember templates use the %!%& escapes to file in the target location immediately and jump there - so I'm working in the org file and not a remember buffer which has no file store. Here's a sample template for reference: (setq (org-remember-templates (quote (("todo" 116 "* TODO %!%&%? %u %a" "~/git/org/todo.org" "Tasks"))))) This way I can use the Emacs session recovery to restore the data.
