[Orgmode] optimising the selection of alternatives in remember templates

[Rainer Stengele]

Imagine using remember to write down a note about a telephone call.
These days I have a remember template with the most possible customers 
company name, the most possible customer names and then subjects and the 
"types".

This adds up to a lot of alternatives in the template.
For choosing the correct one I have to switch through a lot of 
alternatives which are uninteresting as soon as I have chosen the first 
alternative, here the company name.

I find the remember templates are an awesome feature!
They could be optimised in terms of usability if I could define the 
alternatives hierarchically like for example


(company1 - ((customer name1|customer name2|customer name3)
             (project name1|project name2|project name3)
             (incident type1|incident type2|incident type3|)))
(company2 - ((customer name4|customer name5|customer name6)
             (project name1|project name4|project name4)
             (incident type1|incident type3|incident type4|)))
...

This would help speeding up the selection of the correct alternatives in 
a remember template depending on the selection first made while a 
customer is just beginnning to talk on the phone.

I hope this was clear enough.
