I am not yet convinced about how useful this would be.

First of all, "slapping on a %^G" means adding tags.  Since you
probably have %? in the headline of the template anyway, adding tags
is as simple as C-c C-c.... Ahm, no you are right it is not, because  
we are
in a remember buffer after all.

Still, just adding % sequences does not really do it because
you still need to decide where the info should go.  So in the end, it
seems to me the the gain will be very minor.  Any other opinions?
