I am happy to illustrate the value in adding additional actions to core 
buttons. I am writing now as I sit in a hospital waiting room. The two general 
approaches are to intervene at appropriate times and add features while 
simplifying interaction. The proposed solution is designed to be extended with 
multiple solutions being able to add actions without overwritting other 
additional actions.

An example I used as a test was any action on every button was recorded in a 
log of actions. This is a way to track activity to create an audit trail or 
potentially add an undo feature.

An action on tiddler done, close and cancel can stop a timer and log elapsed 
time.

An action on edit could throw a dialogue if no current user is set.

An action on save wiki could store the last modified date and user.

Any button could record its use in a data tiddler e.g. theme switch and permit 
an undo.

A project tiddler could set the current project then revert to the previous one 
on close.

Open in new window button could set an indicator in the main window.

An additional dialogue could be generated on encrypting a tiddler advising the 
password be recorded.

The close all button could trigger a save wiki and prompt for a new user name.

Closing a specific tiddler could trigger a custom actiin like disable a plugin.

Using the settings icon could trigger a warning message or backup current 
settings.

New here could also set a parent field

The home button could open default tiddlers plus a specific tiddler based on 
other values.

And many more....
