I agree, and that is actually exactly what I'm fiddling with! But I'm not 
sure exactly how to approach it. The problem is not the coding but that 
several macros are just not meant for end users. A prime example are 
various "sub macros" only meant to support a main macro. In the core, many 
of these are titled xxx-inner but I suspect many are not. And for communty 
created plugins, there's of course no consistency at all to name submacros.

Futher, there are well over 200 core macros so the list is too long. The 
"public" 
core macros <https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/#core%20macros> are just 
these (ca 35).

So I'm thinking of a two list display (like in the SysTags tab) with common 
macros + a separate complete list where you can "checkbox" macros to add 
them to the common list. I figure it'd be nice if one can add custom 
comments about what various macros do. I.e they're presented in a table 
showing the macro name + its parameter list + an editor for comments. Any 
thoughts on this?

Maybe the macros should be findable via some search mechanism... using the 
SearchDirectory feature... but then a simple dictionary list might not work 
because that is just for direct search terms rather than descriptions. I 
don't have a clear idea how to implement this bit though so maybe that's 
for a later date.
