Wow Soren this is a fantastic contribution to TiddlyWiki! I agree that there are advantages to both the inline and separate tiddler approaches, so it would be cool to see that one day. I often find myself 'working backwards' - creating Anki cards first and then later relating them to a TW note by adding the name of the tiddler to a field called "parent". I had hoped to be able to one day sync these Anki notes with my Wiki and have them transcluded to the bottom of their parent tiddler.
Anyway thanks this is awsome! I hope I will be able to fit it into my Anki/TiddlyWiki workflow.
