As soon, as a tiddler is part of a plugin, it will be a shadow tiddler. So 
yes. Every tiddler can become a shadow if you publish them as a plugin.

... Shadows can be edited, so they become "ordinary" tiddlers. ... There 
are 2 types of ordinary tiddlers. 

"system" and "standard" tiddlers... System tiddlers start with $:/ ... 
which is "just a convention"

If a tiddler has an "overwritten" shadow, there will be some info in the 
EditTemplate. And there is the *$:/ControlPanel : Info : Basics : Number of 
overridden shadow tiddlers*  info. This is the filter it uses:  
[is[tiddler]is[shadow]sort[title]] 

If an overwritten shadow is deleted, the shadow will take over again. ... 
That's basically what you named: "nice properties"
