Updated demo: https://saqimtiaz.github.io/sq-tw/doubleblink.html

I have only spent a few minutes looking at Roam, but from what I saw 
doesn't it have one note open on the left, and can have several open in the 
sidebar on the right?
Anyway, good to take inspiration but ultimately the aim should be to create 
a workflow that makes sense and is useful.

These are the eyesore icons I am referring to, which can be used to 
hide/show the second story without closing all the tiddlers in it:

The behaviour for the display of the second story is as follows:

   - the second story is always closed when there is no tiddler open it
   - shift clicking any tiddler link opens the second story and the tiddler 
   there.
   - with the second story open, you have a button you can use to toggle 
   it. That is, you can leave tiddlers open in the second story but hide the 
   story, and open it again later.
   In my personal use I have found this extremely useful, and anyone that 
   doesn't want this functionality can not use it or disable it.
   - We need better icons and need to consider where to place this button, 
   perhaps in the page controls alone is enough? 
   (Personally I also use a keyboard shortcut for this) The button in the 
   page control area can already be disabled via configuration options and the 
   one in the side bar can also be made a config option.

Regarding folding:

   - you could put the fold button to the left of the tiddler title. 
   Alternatively the tiddler title itself could be clickable and act to 
   fold/unfold the tiddler.
   - I do feel like "fold others" would be useful if offered better 
   affordance.
   - Note that I bake in the setting that turns all Tiddler titles into 
   links. This is handy to shift-click and open the same tiddler in the other 
   story. However, this and the divert buttons offer very similar 
   functionality and we don't necessarily need both.
   Shift+ click on the title opens the same tiddler in the other story, now 
   you have it in both stories. Divert moves it to the other story.
   So there is room here to choose one of the two and either not have the 
   tiddler titles as links, or not have the divert buttons and free up toolbar 
   space.

Regards,
Saq
