Continuing 'the off topic thread' I am also thinking deeply about this though I am not using words like ontology to describe it.
I have this deep feeling and conviction that with a very small amount of additional features, the provision of tag logical operations and some of the ideas discussed here that tiddly wiki will open up so much further in it's possiblilities. Since all tags can be tiddlers (eg; a tag/tiddler called TopPriority) and a tag represents the relationship between a set of tiddlers (All of TopPriority) then it is possible to document the relationship within the actual tiddler called "TopPriority". However a specific tiddler could have a tag of ""TopPriority", ""MidPriority" or "LowPriority". Instead it would be nice to have a tiddler/tag pair called "priority" tagged with the children Top Mid and Low. It would be nice if we could say this tiddler must have one of the "Priority" tags. I also sometimes think if we could spawn additional tag lines we could keep tiddler object, status and others tags seperate from the free form relationships such as a car enthisiasts "Turbo" or "4WD" tags. You may even be able to Hide the administrative tag line from view. I Love systems Theory, Data Normalisation, object/relationship, evolutionary design and other highly intelectual concepts which though complext to think about eventualy make very simple and highly dynamic systems. Just a little brain dump.
