I have no idea what you just said or what you are wondering.

 Thanks, Dave, that's a very useful tip.

 Makes me wonder though how hard it would be to dynamically and
 automagically turn a field input into a textarea, perhaps when one hits
 *ENTER*, i.e. set the number of displayed lines of such a textarea to the
 number of literal newline characters in it. Perhaps it could even always
 be a textarea, starting with 1 line?

In the refactored branch you'll be able to say $edit-text field=myfield
tag=textarea/ to force a text area instead of an input type=text/.
In TW5 input text areas always resize the fit their text. Does that answer
your question?

Not sure, I was thinking more in terms of using / extending the default 
mechanism for adding / editing / removing fields so as to (somewhat 
adaptively) allow for multiline content in a custom field.

Right. There is already a mechanism for a tiddler field to specify the type
attribute of the input element used to edit it. This is how the color
field gets its special editor:

https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/blob/master/boot/boot.js#L725

I've just extended the mechanism to allow the element tag to be specified
in the same way, which would allow a field module to stipulate that a text
area be used by default for editing that field. I'll push the change
shortly.

Best wishes

Jeremy.
