David,
If I understand it correctly you may need the stamp to first wikify this to
text {{Tiddler A}} so the content of "Tiddler A" text field is pasted into
the target tiddler as its actual value, not a transclusion or text
reference. Thus if tiddler A changes it will not change the previously
pasted text?
