Yep. It's more the case here (much the same as versioning might behave) there are "dead ends" which should not be "overwritten" - IOW, whether present or not, they're meaningful and "in use" possibly elsewhere. In actual fact, in most case the tiddlers would be archived off. And just so you understand my use case, it's for music production: hence, 99 versions is plenty/more than enough (hell, if you need 99 versions - well, it's probably a shit song!) and "archived off" may just mean that a particular mix has been "used officially". What I'm copying as source, is a pretty "fat" tiddler to begin with (using Udo's datatiddler/formtiddler plugins) - so when it *is* a deletion/archive, it's kind of important for space reasons that it doesn't need to be kept around just to occupy the given index slot. > I already thought about that situation, even before > your posting, of course you did ;) > > 2 - find some way to make that a tri-state/ternary value to include > > some weird "in between" state I'd never even think of, and, > > actually, there *is* one weird situation: the sparse-ness will only > work when you are also zero padding the number, and then only up to > the limit of the padding.
