Working on my genealogy wiki where each person is a tiddler.  Obviously my 
wiki has lists of people all over the place - parents list, lists of 
children, siblings, etc.

In my lists I want to link to the person, but also show some other fields 
such as year of birth. Something similar to:

    Bill Henderson (1912 - 1974)

Now to the question.  To accomplish this, there appear to be 2 obvious ways 
to generate the output:

1) {{<currentTiddler>||someTemplate}}
2) <$list filter="..."><<formatting_macro <<currentTiddler>>>></$list>

Not knowing the internals of TiddlyWiki, I might assume using a macro would 
be more efficient since it only deals with exactly what is passed whereas 
the template transclusion would parse the entire tiddler each time? Is my 
intuition correct?  Are there better ways to do this? Is there a best way? 
Thanks.
