Resurrecting "selective freelinking" issue, after a whole year!
I have a new project with freelinks, but want to minimize the risk of
slowing the wiki way down. Jeremy had explained, in this thread, how to
limit freelinks:

When I tried this recently, I thought it wasn't working... until I realized
we were talking past each other a bit.
- ALICE: I do say what I mean; I always mean what I say. It's the same
thing.
- MAD HATTER: Not in the slightest. Is it the same thing to say you see
what you eat and you eat what you see?
I envisioned EVERY tiddler being poised to display with outbound freelinks,
but pointing ONLY to the tiddlers with MyTag (wherever those titles are
mentioned in a text field).
Instead, the recipe above limits freelinks the other way: we don't see them
EXCEPT when MyTag tiddlers are being viewed (but then we see outbound links
to EVERY tiddler whose title is mentioned).
So..., is it possible to develop a filter that constrains which "targets"
are eligible? (Use case: I've got defined technical terms; whenever
pasted-in text happens to mention the term, the term "lights up")
