I feel the backstage should be hidden as default - Maybe it could be accessed as a checkbox option you could put in the backstage in the Tweaks tab?? I don't quite get the point, where you say that "the new tiddler button was readily available, and I didn't have to scroll to the top of the page to click it." It's still located in the SideBarOptions tiddler isn't it? - in the menuBar at the top of the PageTemplate - so you'll still have to scroll up to see it?! > to non-TiddlyWiki users, > the new tiddler, permaview and close all buttons are meaningless and > concepts they must understand and use.

The new tiddler is hidden in readonly mode, and I feel/think that the permaview button should be available to readers who would want to share a link to all open tiddlers (story).. TW *is* different in that it doesn't provide breadcrumbs, unless you provide a plugin which forces it to do so, and even then you'll only have a link to one open tiddler - which isn't perfect, when you'd want to share the view of several tiddlers in a story... I feel this is one of the advantages of a TW - which readers should become aware of - and it should be as obvious as possible :-) Maybe the CloseAll button should/could be replaced with a Home - button, which will prevent readers from getting "a blank story", and let them start all over - just like you would expect on most "traditional webpages" .... > The downside of putting these buttons here is the height of the > backstage increases, it is a bit more overwhelming and it also seems > to extend the original remit of the backstage. Yep - I don't like that... I was quite thrilled, back then, when the backstage was made very slim.
