Totally agree. It is a fool's errand to think one can secure TiddlyWiki,
unless I've missed something somewhere that says otherwise.
I'm just about minimizing the pains in the caboose caused by human error,
by computer-related total foulups, and certain kind of folk who should
crawl back in
Yeah, security isn't really my aim here. I back it all up regularly so it's
really just a) trying to save me from someone that felt like being a d*ck
and b) family getting confused when roaming around. My family, on both my

fine-grained security. That's the one thing I need to resolve.

use to edit only certain tiddlers.
For that to work requires some trickery that allows only certain users to
do certain things for certain tiddlers.
It is a setup for fine-grained user-id/role fine-grained control which
I think how I'd set things up:
Those few tiddlers you want anonymous users to edit, put those in another
TiddlyWiki, say TiddlyWiki B. TiddlyWiki A being the one you referenced in
your OP.
Setup TiddlyWiki A to include TiddlyWiki B.
For tiddlers from TiddlyWiki B, setup an alternative "edit
