[O] Quicker refile? Capture & progress cookies. Using capture to count/tally

[Gez]

I have a list of "niggles" which are not on an active todo list
because they only occur to me from time to time, but I wanted to be
able to quickly note each time one of them bothers me, so that the
most annoying ones, the ones I would want to add to my todo list
first, might start to "rise to the surface".

So I created a capture template which inserts a "todo" under the
already listed niggle (which has a progess cookie).  It's simple and
reasonably fast.  Does anyone have any other ways of counting/tallying
in org-mode?

There are two issues with how I'm doing it.  One (pretty minor) is
that the inserted todo doesn't trigger off the progress cookie.  It's
not a big deal; when I want to know which niggle has the largest
count, I just need to do C-u C-c # in the file.  But I thought I'd
point it out in case it could be fixed.

The second issue is one I have with capture all the time; I want the
refile to be faster.  I have a few capture templates for logging that
send to a particular headline, but most times I use capture the target
can be anywhere in my main outlines.  As it is, I'm almost always
finishing up with C-c C-w, and in effect starting from scratch each
time, narrowing down to the target from all my agenda files.  I'd
really like a template where once I've called it and entered text or
tags or whatever, I use a single key press and the refile selection
would begin with a file or headline pre-selected for quick further
narrowing down. I don't know if that's do-able with IDO but I do
imagine it could work with file+headline, file+olp etc. They would
become file+headline+prompt etc and just as now, the template would
determine which target was first suggested, but then it would still be
"open" for quick further filtering before RET.    To summarise - my 2
ideas are: 1. to add something like "+prompt" to refile selection in
general, and 2. to allow capture templates with a "+prompt" target to
use a single key to start the refile process.  I hope all this makes
sense!
