I think I knew about org-directory from looking into something with org-read-agenda-file-list, which is another place it is used. Until recently, org-directory's docstring was stale for a long time and nobody noticed, so I'm guessing few people use the variable. I've updated org-capture-templates and the capturing section of the manual to mention org-directory. -- Kyle
