Ok... but it sure would be lot more attractive as a stand-alone app, not
a plug-in, and not tied to VS-code.
Again, TiddlyWiki seems the model. In fact... a Leo plug-infor
TiddlyWiki would seem a natural!

This is a good point, and I will admit that the 'out of the gate'
description of LeoJS in the readme is all laid out in the
forefront to be the 'javascript implementation of Leo as a vscode
plugin', the goal being to get the Leo user-base's attention and
interest, in trying out LeoJS, being a 100% compatible Leo
equivalent. (except for being scriptable in JavaScript instead of
python)
I think that a helpful approach could be along these lines:
/LeoJS is a combined outliner and code editor based on the principles
evolved over many years for the Leo Editor. LeoJS is highly compatible
with the Leo Editor at the file and internal API levels. In this way
existing Leo Editor users can use LeoJS and continue to work as they
always have, and new users can get the benefits of running in a VS
Code or browser host. The combination of outliner and code editor
together provides unexpected and remarkably useful benefits./
