On hastags: Ive always thought it would be really helpful to make use of the "On Save" action of tiddlers to employ a hashtag mechanism. If its enabled, when a user saves a tiddler the contents are scanned for hashtags and added as tags (according to pre-specified well defined rules, just like tiddler tittles). Also, any hashtags currently in the tag field that are not present in the text, can also be removed (this could be another option to enable this).
