[Message part 4 (text/plain, inline)]

Remember Mode is great but I encountered two limitations:

- The major mode to edit data to remember is hard-coded to `text-mode'
  where one may want to use Enriched text, Markdown, etc. modes

- A possible workflow is to select the file to store the data
  dynamically, after the data to remember has been edited

A patch is attached that turn `remember-mode' into a minor mode and
define a customizable variable `remember-initial-major-mode' to select
the major mode used to edit data to remember.

It also defines the `remember-append-in-data-directory' handler that
covers the second limitation.

Finally, a prefix map is defined for the `remember',
`remember-clipboard', and `remember-notes' commands.

I am using analogous modifications to maintain my personnal notes in
Markdown format. I don't claim the patch is to be used as is, but I think
it illustrate
possible evolutions of the simple but great Remember mode.

Are such changes acceptable and pertinent? Is it worth to fine tune the
patch? Comments welcome!

(I know of Org Capture mode but don't understand why capturing notes
relates to Org mode and I am not interested in Org markup langage; No
judgement, just used to Makdown).
