Walt,

As I understand it your concern is when using permalinks. In this case you 
are externalising a tiddler with a URL. I think there is an argument that 
if you use a permalink it should be for something permanent.

Now if you would like the ability to generate a link that will return to 
the same tiddler in the future, even if it changes it's name, then we can 
do that. 

However before I explain how, can you clarify what you are trying to do or 
get from tiddlywiki because I have never come across this as a problem (I 
put it down to my tiddler naming skills :). Can you give an example?

Regards
Tones
