Amy.

A key value of streams is it allows you to take and organise notes in  
"stream of consciousness" process, it stays out of the way while to capture 
information in a structured and reorganizable way. It is one of a few 
"outliners".

It is open enough you can hack it to use alternate titles for the 
subtiddlers, and you can use other TiddlyWiki features to list and change 
the resulting subtiddlers. There is great value in automated titles so you 
don't need your imagination, but then you can rename them later (Relink 
plugin) and use other methods than the title to find and open them.

I am gradually putting together a number of automated titles solutions, try 
this on tiddlywiki.com as an example

\define subTiddler-title(seed:"subTiddler")
[[$(currentTiddler)$/$seed$]]
\end

Default <<subTiddler-title>> Last $:/temp/last-title

<$wikify name=basetitle text={{{ [<subTiddler-title>] }}} >
<$button>
<$action-createtiddler $basetitle=<<basetitle>> 
$savetitle="$:/temp/last-title"/>
<$action-listops $field="sub-tiddlers" $subfilter="[{$:/temp/last-title}]" 
/>
Create ~SubTiddler
</$button>
</$wikify>

Look in the recent tab to see they have being created.

Later I will auto title them with serial number, dates, with system 
prefixes and more. Perhaps even bulk renames.

Tones
