TW already has excision, but you have to be in edit mode and there are 
several speed bumps that make it somewhat messy to use.

This is an example project that demonstrates using drag-and-drop to replace 
text with excerpts that can then be displayed with your own template.

This could be useful is you are studying text, and want to excerpt portions 
for quotes or for cross-linking with other tiddlers.

Caveats.

   - This is for 5.1.23-prerelease only. 
   - Any other tiddler in the story river that contains the same text will 
   have  it's text replaced also. This is why excerpts are tagged with 
   "Excerpt" so they won't be double-processed.
   - Only works with simple unformatted text. 
   - To make it work with TW's linefeeds, the """ markup is applied to the 
   top of each excerpt.
   - Possibly only works on Mondays. Or on solstices.
