format_date() only matched %<FORMAT> patterns via string.gmatch. Org-mode date shortcuts %t, %T, %u, %U were left unexpanded, resolving to "today" instead of the target date when using capture_date for a non-today date. Extend format_date() to replace these org capture template codes using the target date's OrgDate object: - %t → inactive date stamp [YYYY-MM-DD Day] - %T → active date stamp <YYYY-MM-DD Day> - %u → inactive date+time stamp [YYYY-MM-DD Day HH:MM] - %U → active date+time stamp <YYYY-MM-DD Day HH:MM>
