Well, then let me throw in some controversy, for giggles (since we're way off topic anyway): Extreme politeness and willingness to comprehensively solve others' problems, while very beneficial for most users' immediate needs, can yield negative long-term effects by stymying deeper understanding and perpetuating reliance on a small group of established experts. First - you are on topic for this particular thread, which I began with a comment regarding the difficulty of tweaking and upgrading, etc. To your point: By constantly applying "Band-Aids" to TiddlyWiki problems, we may be avoiding facing the major operation that may be ultimately needed. The "major operation" of course is adding those features that would place TiddlyWiki among the mature tools that don't require backstage technical tweaks by a programmer, but have controls that any user can learn. Not an original comment, of course.
