Jeremy and all, The last frontier, then, is aliases... while we're at it. ;)
In addition to finding case-insensitive matches, freelinks ought to be able to look for specified variants on a tiddler's title (alternate spellings, plurals, adjectival forms, synonyms, whatever is important enough to flag). In the TWC implementation, I think the field for such strings was aliases ... although both alias and aliases have apparently been put to other uses more recently... But whatever it's called, there ought to be some field that houses any name-variations that should serve as alternate "magnets" for freelinks. This is a can of worms, perhaps. But if the worry was about slow-down, and filters can allow us to mitigate that effect as needed, then maybe it's time to put freelinks via aliases back on the table?
