Oooh I just got two cool ideas! Anyone skilled, feel free to create:

First depends on if it is OK with "5.2" (see my previous question). Those 
two digits have a very similar shape! I think it should be possible to make 
some kind of mirror reflection to have one show the other. 

Second idea uses that new feature with freely named fields. So the design 
idea is to simply make the string "TiddlyWiki 5.2.0" as a field! E.g the 
"TiddlyWiki 5" as the field name and the "2.0" as the field value. Should 
the garbage can that deletes the field be next to it?...
