@Matt definitely some similarities but somewhat different goals than 
EditorMagic.

EditorMagic was about guessing what the user was typing and trying to offer 
help to autocomplete that.
This prototype is about having a single shortcut to trigger a menu, which 
can be extended via tags etc, which offers different commands you can 
invoke. All usable via the keyboard alone, naturally.

Since the primary use case in my mind was Streams, for things like adding 
tags and converting to different node types,  this approach makes more 
sense since there wouldn't be anything to autocomplete. However I have 
spent all of one distracted hour on this, so if I do get to work on it 
further not sure what direction it will take. :) 

Once we get this <https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/discussions/5585> 
implemented it will open up a lot of possibilities for exploration.

Cheers,
Saq
