Thanks for the response, Mario.

To be clear, with my comparison I didn't want to diminish the value of
JSorter at all. I was really flabbergasted when I saw it the first
time. What an unique example what could be possibly done with  TW
already at that time? - Nevertheless, I actually never used it for
reasons you're aware yourself.

Of course, one always has to evaluate which additional functions are
really useful, and which aren't. But for expanding/collapsing tiddlers
there are already really lightweight solutions out there, which
adapted would only cost a fraction of of Kanban's size, and in my view
this single one addition would really make it much more useful for
also completely different jobs, like as a visual tagging tool. Even if
Tim decided against and wouldn't add it, I myself could probably hack
it's stylesheet to hide the tiddler text with really no additional
bytes.

Please don't take my comparison in a competitive sense. It wasn't
meant that way. With a-pm already everything and much, much more is
possible, which surprisingly Kanban comes very close to too. From a
user's perspective a comparison of apples and bananas is what happens
all the time, really. But isn't meant to narrow the value of banana or
apple trees, from where these fruits came.

Actually a very good comparison: Would love bananas but for long therm
health complications I'm already satisfied with a third of an apple
these days (try to minimize carbs and fructose). Similarly, would love
to use JSorter, but to avoid the complexity issue whenever bugs occur,
I'm rather satisfied with something so much less complex like Kanban.
And am glad the distant sweetness of a banana is out there too (and
still indulge in at much rarer occasions ;-)

The best.
