I tried to reproduce this. When I do this and enter the date two
days into the future (8 December), I get
* 2011
** 2011-12 Dezember
*** 2011-12-08 Donnerstag
**** Test
<2011-12-06 Di>
So the headline uses in fact the date that was entered at the prompt,
only the %t is replaced by the current date. I would think this
all works as expected. Maybe I am missing something?
I see that when I do "k c" from the agenda, then indeed also the %t
is replaced with the cursor date. So indeed, this is a bit
inconsistent. What would be the right behavior?
