I would expand on my specific usage, but after the first response (I
am definitely not at developer level) I modified my approach a little
and discovered I can get most of what I want with a
ShowTabsForTiddlers macro.  I am probably going to have some questions
about it later!  Thanks for all the responses, and Tobias, I think
your solution would work perfectly if I was still using that method.
