Subject: Capture templates with "function" type

Hi,

I'm trying to set up a capture template of type "function" in order to
produce a daily log file named after today's date.

It mostly works.  However, after doing the C-cC-c to close the capture
buffer the window is left holding the daily log file which the capture
just updated instead of going back to whatever buffer I was in when I
initiated the capture.  This returning-to-previous-buffer behavior is
what I see when I use the file+headline capture type.

Can someone say how I might get this behavior for the "function" capture
type as well?  Here is my setup:

(defun bv-daily-log-file ()
  (find-file (concat "~/org/web/notes/" 
                  (format-time-string "%Y-%m-%d") ".org"))
  (goto-char (point-max))
  (newline 2)
)
(setq org-capture-templates 
 (quote 
  (
   ("n" "Note" entry
    (function bv-daily-log-file)
    "\* %U %^{title}\n  %a\n\n%?"
    :empty-lines 1)
   )))


Thanks,
-Brett.
