Two things control where a tiddler is saved:
* If it is an existing tiddler it is saved back to where it came from.
* If it is a new tiddler it is saved to the server.workspace field
that it inherits
There's a third option; the NewTiddler macro might set the respective
custom field(s).

I'm afraid it's not that simple.
For example, if we were to completely re-invent the sidebar (not to

wouldn't apply

Unfortunately, a major problem with making any significant changes to
the default theme is backwards compatibility, as many existing documents
rely on the current framework (e.g. due to StyleSheet customizations).

Why does the txtUserName cookie work fine in FF3 with ver 2.2.5 of
