Folks, I thought I would chime in here and say the title is the unique key to a tiddler, so we must keep that true. However in lists of tiddlers we can present links that look like compound keys Blue Poles, oil on canvas, 2000x1500cm, 1987 (This is actually a row constructed from values found in various fields which have great value being independent)
Lists give you this flexibility. Depending on how you design your wiki this is often sufficient. Construct a tiddler that presents the data within you wiki however you want. I don't see why we could not have a way to hide the title title with css and display this constructed one in the view template. But we should always keep tiddler titles simple and have a method by which to make them unique, even if it were by naming them by a unique serial number. Also Mario's subtitle field suggestion also the masks the possibility of using his alias plugin as well. In that case there are almost two (or more) titles for the same tiddler.
