Great dialogue by the way (love this community!). >From my read of Tiddler Slicing - you would need to know the names of the individual tiddlers where the text string (actions) are housed. In the use case I am thinking about.
I use the @ACTION to also track items I have delegated or that someone else is doing that I want to track/follow-up on. I use the individual's initials after the @ACTION. This way I can quickly pull together a list of items I need to follow-up within someone on (great for status meetings with team members). I have been using plain old text files with a Grep tool to search - it works well - but is not as portable or robust as tiddlywiki. I see this as potentially a more efficient implementation of the GTD methodology - you are able to create the action items 'inline' and not have to move to a different place to add them to a different todo list. I am a business guy - not a coder... so if anyone feels up to building a grep like tool for Tiddlywiki.... I can offer testing and documentation support.....
