That's good stuff. If you like to tag content for a menu to be automatic reflect the content, the built-in stuff in TiddlyWiki is right awesome.
Me, I tend to like control on my menus, adding menu items which then take me to the content. It is a bit like one approach is bottom up, and the other is top down. (Not sure which would be which.) Either way equally good, probably a difference in right-brain versus left-brain thinking. Maybe more so the purpose of the menu. Meh ... That details thing I suggested, that was very rough around the edges, just to throw the quick thought together. It could be oh-so-sweet with some proper design. But only of value if you're of a "menu-first-towards-content" mindset versus "content-first-towards-menu" mindset. Either way, so much fun !
