Getting an alias field to play well with freelinks is THE DREAM! 

To be clear: something like uni-link helps one kind of use-scenario -- the 
one where a single author is generating tiddler content, and is aware, 
while typing, of where there's an alias available.

My own case (perhaps like OP here, blarg H) is that I'm often pasting in 
text from elsewhere, and I just want all the resonances to other tiddler 
titles to self-recognize.

Jeremy's freelinks macro is GREAT for that! But simple things like 
capitalization and plurals get broken. And since I'm pasting in text from 
elsewhere (sometimes in a formal-citation context) it's really not 
appropriate for me to mangle the text itself.

I'm in no position to rewrite any plugins (least of all now, given my 
day-job). But I would actually pay real money for this work. And I'm not 
rich. :)
