I can't speak to the issue of linking or the relationship between the fields, but if the issue is just the small side of the edit box, you could try the editwidget. I use the following in one tiddler to adjust the content of a custom field of a second tiddler.
<$edit tag="textarea" tiddler="yourtiddlernamehere" field="yourfieldnamehere" class="tc-edit-texteditor"/> For your case scenario, it would be a matter of changing tiddler="" to a 'currentTiddler' filter, adding it to a tiddler, and tagging the tiddler $:/tags/EditTemplate . Not sure what you would need to put. But that would give you a bigger area to work with for that field / those fields.
