I understand.
From the perspective of the library being discussed, what you want does
not look impossible.

The other question is altering the org-capture code.
I think that it is too early to discuss org-capture part just yet.
Lets first finalize the generic library itself and discuss the
appropriate adjustments to
org-capture/org-agenda/org-export/org-todo/etc code later.

Best,
