I would think transforming a field to a variable is a good approach <$set name=fieldname value={{!!fieldname}} emptyValue="DefaultValue"> You can than use <> or in filters or in macros $(fieldname)$ or <<__fieldname__>> or if used as a parameter $fieldname$ Notice how it is often fine using t

Most of your examples have an implied scope of the entire tiddler title. That is, if the tiddler can only have lower case letters, then *every single character* from start to end (^ to $) has to be lowercase. But duplicate words can start and end anywhere inside the title, so the scope doesn't
