Re: [O] org-capture changes the buffer ring in a confusing way

Hi Samuel,

Unfortunately, right now, I don't know a good way to avoid this.  Org switches 
to a special buffer while filling in the template, in order to allow 
interactive prompts, and I think this might be the cause of messing with the 
buffer list.
