Subject: 27.0.50; Org-mode: org-capture and final newline
Date: Wed, 23 Oct 2019 18:00:12 +0200
Hello,

this happens quite often to me and scrambles my todo.org:

I want to capture an APPT with `org-capture'.  I the pop-up buffer to
edit the item I move the date to the second line and add text after the
date (personal preference).  That loses the final newline in
CAPTURE-todo.org.  As a result, the headline of the item following the
item to be inserted gets appended to the last line of the text:

** APPT Abc
   <2019-10-23 Mi>
text... ** APPT 8:30 Important Appointment

breaking the whole item.  The user should somehow be prevented from that
happening.

TIA,

Michael.
