When the TW parser unpacks {{banana}} it renders the same widget nodes as:
```
<$tiddler tiddler="banana">
<$transclude tiddler=<<currentTiddler>> field="text"/>
</$tiddler>
```In order for your widget to invoke the same widget nodes, it has to set the <<currentTiddler>> variable to the same tiddler you are transcluding.
