Lists were the first thing I grabbed onto about TW5 that I thought, wow, 
this will definitely be worth upgrading to TW5. I have a TWc file with 
nearly everything I need to teach a college class. When TW5 gets auto-save 
and more robust javascript error handling, I'll switch. TW5 and lists will 
allow more flexibility with creating a class teaching outline, using 
certain tags or fields, on the fly rather than manually copying and pasting 
things. This assumes I break my currently monolithic tiddlers into parts 
and recombine them as desired using lists later. Just for experiment sake 
and because I deal with them sometimes, I have added some Bible verses to a 
TW5 and created 3 fields (biblebook, biblechapter, bibleverse). If you do 
that with some verses, you can create a nested list providing all verses 
within a certain book, chapter, or verse range. Someone could use this 
structure applied to other literature to take notes for class, write a 
reference book draft, create a survey, or create a test bank for tests (if 
there was a random tiddler picker that would pick 20-35 questions at random 
from a pool and place them in the list; TWc has something like this for 
themes).

    Verse range...Verse range

PS. I imagine all of these things could be done with TWc but TW5 brought 
them to my attention and skill level immediately.
