That makes sense and yes it isn't how emptyMessage works, as the variable
is only set by the ListWidget when the filter has a result.
I had assumed from your code that you wanted {{!!title}} in the
emptyMessage to mean you wanted the title of the currentTiddler as set
outside the list widget.
I think constructing the title in a variable as you have done is the right
way to approach this for readable code.
