Doubled square brackets are used for more than just TiddlyWiki links.  They 
can also be used in a space-separated list (such as a tag list) to delimit 
a value that contains one or more literal spaces.  Thus, a list of tags 
containing "mumble frotz" as a single tag value would be written:
   foo bar baz [[mumble frotz]] gronk snork

Doubled square brackets can also be used as "quotes" surrounding a macro 
parameter than contains spaces, like this:
   <<macroName ... paramname:[[some value with spaces]] ... >>

This has the added advantage of enabling use of BOTH single-quotes and 
double-quotes within the parameter value:
   <<macroName ... paramname:[[John said, "I'd like a cookie, please!"]] 
... >>

enjoy,
