Hi Stephan

I have written a widget that sets the value of a text reference to the 
output of a filter expression. Currently, this will output a comma 
separated list (which will be transformed into a space separated list only 
if the text-reference points to the special 'list' field.) 

Would it make more sense for this widget to output a space separated list?

I wasn't around for any of the discussions with respect the use of lists of 
tiddlers, however there's a 'list' filter operator that allows the use of 
any field to be used in place of the special 'list' field and this makes no 
sense if the other field contains a comma separated list when a space 
separated list is expected.

The *list* filter operator replaces the current list with the list 
> contained in the TextReference <#TextReferences> specified in the 
> operand. The default field for the text reference is list.
