Hi Mario,
As I said in my last reply, if qualified as "semantic fields" these fields
would *not be* hard to access but rather have a simple access & management
ui to them, e.g. a "semantic fields" block actually showing type-dependent
edit controls, e.g. searchbox for bracketed lists, checkbox for boolean,
date-picker for dates, etc... either in edit mode or even in view-mode,
e.g. as a kind of "inline editing" (step 2).
I am no fan of having semantic data within the tiddler body, unless
relevant to the actual context. Why? Because it makes it so much harder to
programatically do anything with your document and surely makes the
processing power needed magnitudes larger. So, hidden sections or slices
seem much less appealing for me, especially as it would be genuinely hard
to create any enhanced ui around (hidden) in-text information.
Cheers, Tobias.
