Sylvain, it's already true that the target set of tiddlers (to which 
freelinks are made) can be restricted by some list condition (like having a 
certain tag). 

So the challenge here is specific to *uses* of a string that should 
generally be linked, but not in this instance.

Here's a better example than above: Suppose I have my last name as a 
tiddler, and want all mentions of me to point to that tiddler, but then I 
paste in some text that mentions a different Springer (the publisher, or 
the Jerry, egads). When I see that unwanted freelink show up, I need a 
quick edit to interrupt freelinking for just that instance.

One workaround (I'm using it now) is to paste a zero-width space into the 
middle of the word, like U+180E. This makes everything render correctly -- 
but at the expense of breaking whole-word searches and other data 
functions.
