The idea of using the org-goto interface (which is what org-remember-handler
 uses for interactive filing), but IIRC Max has pointed out correctly
that this interface is way too slow for this task.  It is OK for occasional
use, and if you are comfortable with it, you can use it during remember
to file your note.  However, if remember has collected some 10 tasks
during a day and you need to go through this interface 10 times
in succession, you will immediately get tired of it.  Opening another window
and doing cut-and-paste from one window to the other would probably
be better.

A second option would be to have

It might be worth looking into disambiguating (is that a word???)
duplicate headlines, or indeed make the hierarchy look like
a path or even complete like find-file.  Not a bad idea at all.
