Hello all,

I hate to beat a dead horse 
<https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/issues/3308> but I still think an 
"advanced edit mode" would be very useful. I'm trying to develop a proof of 
concept, but I am having some trouble. I've broken it down into the 
following pieces/questions notes.

This is just to start the conversation again and see if anyone can help me 
hobble along towards a proof of concept.

   - An edit text widget whose contents will show the ".tid" version of a 
   tiddler
      - Important tiddlers for this part: 
      $:/core/templates/exporters/TidFile which uses the 
      *$:/core/templates/tid-tiddler* template. 
      - You can see it in action and get the "tid" version of any tiddler 
      by doing: {{ || $:/core/templates/tid-tiddler }}
         - Question: This all comes out on "one line". What happens to the 
         "new lines"?
      - Question: How can I populate the contents of an edit-text widget to 
      be the .tid version? 
      - It seems it can only edit a field of a tiddler, so Id have to 
         create a new field which is the tid version of a tiddler of interest?
         - Where does the edit-text widget live? Certainly not in the 
         tiddler of interest itself.
         - Assuming the above works, when saving, the content of the widget 
   needs to be "imported"/parsed back to overwrite all fields of the tiddelr 
   of interest. 
   - Question: Can/should I use the import mechanism here? 
      
*Note*: This mode would be *very very* useful in quickly defining fields, 
but it would be *supercharged* when paired with *multi-line fields* (which 
is currently not supported - I wish!!)

Thanks,
Diego
