This seems like it adds a lot of complexity to anyone parsing the JSON 
tiddler store. If anyone is manually looking through it, then they won't 
have access to all of the fields unless they also parse the text for 
"\field" pragmas.

Out of question, what is the workflow for having multiline fields where 
having a subtiddler doesn't work (e.g. "myTiddler/description" relates to 
"myTiddler" instead of having a description field)? They've always seemed 
so esoteric to me.
