This is an interesting idea.. it's close to distinguishing and aggregation [1]. However, grasping lines wouldn't be somewhat easy to achieve - this is because Document Object Model (which is used in html etc) has no conception about lines - lines are created by the browser when computing the representation. Speaking about what JavaScript can grab, I'd say it would be an exact quantity of words after or before the "@..." (that number can be made to be a parameter of search). In this case this seems to be a makable plugin.. as for now, I don't know TW's object model good enough to make such a thing, but I'll take this idea into account.
Ehm.. do you mean "lines" in the "source code" of a tiddler?
