Up until now, Entity and Attribute tiddler titles were the names of the entities/attributes. Aside from the benefit of a consistent approach, why setup tiddler titles this way? Since I'm using TiddlyWiki as a platform to build an application, I am setting everything up so that a user never needs to interact with Tiddlers directly. Users only ever need to interact with my customized "interfaces" to fact/entity/attribute tiddlers. (Well, anybody can get to the TiddlyWiki interface by simply unhiding the standard sidebar.) I was finding changing TiddlyWiki titles problematic via customized interfaces, and I really didn't really care to try and get that to work because I'm of the opinion that TiddlyWiki works best when tiddler titles never, ever, change. Although I love relink and just can't do without it in my other TiddlyWiki projects (I am a constant tweaker of everything/anything, including titles), title changes really suck when there are links from outside a TiddlyWiki to a specific tiddler in a TiddlyWiki. Change the title on a tiddler, and a link from the outside breaks. So my standard, for Tifoist at least, is to never allow tiddler title changes and to use auto-generated sequential titles for tiddlers created by the custom interface. Something like that ...
