Anders, you sweet and huggable you.

That way of getting tiddlers is new to me, and just gave me a fantastic 
idea.

Now knowing that URL's like 
https://tiddlywiki.com/#:[title[Saving%20on%20TiddlySpot]] and 
https://tiddlywiki.com/#:[delivery[Service]]

Then having auto-generated/auto-created uid fields on tiddlers ...

Say a tiddler titled "Tiddler XYZ", if it had a uid field with value 
"tid-000001", then a link like this should work:  
https://whatever-your-tiddlywiki/#:[uid[tid-000001]]

It is just a matter of having an alternate permalink button that generates 
that uid link.

Yay ?
