Hi PMario, I think the best approach would be to have a dropable-sortable list to where you could drag a handle next to a tiddlers title ...and thus add the tiddler to the list.
The culprits however are updates: 1) Remove tiddlers from the sortable list that are no longer found? 2) How would your sorted list be able to get notified of any name- changes? Finally, I guess there could be a kind of macro to (re)poulate the list based on a list of tagged tiddlers. At the beginning, when the list is empty you would simply fill it with all tiddlers tagged xyz. If the list is non-empty, you compare all tagged tiddlers to those already on the list, add any new items at the bottom while asking the user if he wants to remove all orphans, in case there are any. (Re)Populating a list could be done by ctrl-dragging just the same handle but next to a tag-tiddler's title onto the sortable list. On the other hand, while all of this may look nicer, it doesn't seem much easier than editing a tiddler's source, does it? ...while there would also be no benefit of making actually persistent links that survive name changes.
