FYI:
In a button you do not need to use messages or params in the button but can
use actions= <<action-macroname>> to drive the actions. you can also place
actionwidgets inside the button, even wrapping them in lists or
conditionally. Use the actionSend message widget etc... Then rather than
paramObject param etc.. you can supply the fieldname="value"
fieldname1={{transcluded}} fielname2=<<var>> to the action widget.
The term hash map is almost obsolete in tiddlywiki at a wikitext level, so
either it should be described or deprecated in the documentation.
