If you have a short look at [3] 
http://tiddlywiki.org/wiki/NewTiddler_%28macro%29
There is a fields parameter that can be used with the newTiddler
command.

fields:"k1:v1 k2:v2"

But I am not a big fan of "hidden/meta" information. If someone copies
a tiddler by hand, they will copy the text. 50% will copy the tag, 50%
wont and 100% will never ever find the fields parameter. In my
opinion, there is a 99% chance to push your support to full capacity.

Sorting by tags, reading from sections and slices is very powerfull,
less error-prone and much more visible. Just my opinion q:)
