bug? Can't abort org-remember buffer after mistyping my (t)emplate letter

[Scot Becker]

I have org-remember working successfully (I can't believe that it took
me so long to experiment with it.  It has made a huge difference in my
work).

But if, after calling the extension with C-c r, I type a "wrong" tag
selector (e.g. I mistype a right one), I get
(1) the error message 'no template'  (good)
(2) a remember buffer without a bullet point, with the point at the
very top of the file (sure, what do I expect?)
(3) but, having realized my mistake, I can't get out of it gracefully.
 I can't abort (C-c C-k), and can't (C-c C-c).
I get the error message    "Args out of range 0, 1"

Any idea whether I've set something up wrong or if org just has no
mercy on those who can't manage to type one of the selected values?
Otherwise, org-remember works well.

I'm running org 2.26 trans on Emacs 23.0.91.1.  Using the following
org-remember  values:


;;;; org-mode and remember
(org-remember-insinuate)
     (setq org-directory "~/org")
     (setq org-default-notes-file (concat org-directory "/notes.org"))
     (define-key global-map "\C-cr" 'org-remember)

(setq org-remember-templates
      '(("Todo" ?d "* TODO %?\n  %i\n  %a" "~/org/TODO.org" "Tasks")
        ("Journal" ?j "* %U %?\n\n  %i\n  %a" "~/wr/personal-org/tag.org")
        ("Idea" ?i "* %^{Title}\n  %i\n  %a" "~/org/Ideas.org" "New Ideas")
        ("Homo Faber" ?f "* %^{Title}\n  %i\n  %a" "~/org/TODO.org" "Tooling")
        ("Thesis Idea" ?t "* %^{Title}\n  %i\n  %a"
"~/org/Thesis-Ideas.org" "Thesis Ideas")
	("Bug" ?b "* BUG %?\n  %i\n  %a" "~/org/BUGS.org" "Bugs")))

Hi Scot,

I have now fixed this by forcing you to type a valid template
character, or to exit with C-g.
