I apologize to everybody for suggesting something that I thought would be 
beneficial, because I see now there is no way to put in what I was thinking 
without a complete overhaul of the documentation's architecture.

When I 
inspect https://tiddlywiki.com/#%24%3A%2Feditions%2Ftw5.com%2Foperator-macros, 
I realize the entire architecture of the thing is way too complex to 
change, and way too complex for me to ever consider helping out.  The 
process was already too complex for me, and now I see the architecture is 
not something I can handle.

So hats off to the folk who can wrap their brains around that, because I 
have neither the time nor the desire to put in the effort to figure that 
out.
