Hi Jean, a few thoughts.

Categorising your capture templates can help a lot with this I think. See [1]. > Can interface be improved that people with larger number of templates > become free to use it? IMO just styling it nicer can make it easier to use. For instance, I find symbols and colour help with at-a-glance use. Also see [1]. > My proposal is to quit using blocking interface where user cannot move > from buffer to buffer, instead to open up new buffer with new key mode > map that assigns those keys to those capture template functions.

This sounds like a good idea IMO 👍. > Why not provide completing-read for Org capture templates? That would > solve the problem fully. Eh, personally I'm not convinced this is the way to go. I find category use is sufficiant to keep a number of templates well-organised and accesible. All the best, Timothy. [1]: https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/fzuv4f/my_prettified_orgcapture/
