Actually, AFAICT, the sole function calling `org-insert-heading' in
"org-agenda.el" is `org-agenda-insert-diary-make-new-entry'. I fixed it
so it properly puts point on the right spot in the entry.
Does it fix your issue?

If a function calls on `org-insert-heading' and puts point in some
position for further processing, it should take into consideration
meta-data (i.e., planning info and properties drawer).
