*1) I have never liked the new journal icon. Just a personal thing. 2) I 
wanted to avoid modifying actual shadow tiddlers as much as possible. And 
since MY new journal also adds a backlink, it is not quite the same. So I 
cloned it and made the changes. 3) I didn't consider the duplication 
because I never use the tools tab, and didn't get the impression anyone 
actually uses that. I will have a look at that.*
