Hi Charlie, love the concept and very impressiv what you managed to put together, thank you for sharing.
If you don't mind asking, is there a specific reason for placing the decision for what to transclude in the two templates themselves and always calling both of them? Personally I would have put the decision in the root tiddler - e.g. TiddlyWiki Title - via a match filter and only called what was needed, so I wonder if there is something I am missing/not thinking about or if it is just another case of multiple ways to achieve the same result. Oh and one thing I noticed, just as an info: Since getstartupcontext is a javascript macro you don't actually need to import it. Unlike normal macros javascript macros are always global.
