BTW, I keep mixing up, and keeping in my head, what is a "system" tiddler, and what is a "shadow" tiddler. So anytime I read any related post, or attempt to give thoughts related to those types of tiddlers, there is a strong chance that I've regressed again re knowing which is which, just when I finally got it straight.
So bear with me a little. Maybe I can get it locked-in updating my wee prototype to deal with both system and shadow tiddlers. I wouldn't get my hopes up...
