Hi Felix
> Concluding Question: Why isn't the transclusion parsed when used as input
for edit-text?
Transcluded attributes on HTML elements or widgets are not wikified; the
attribute gets the raw value of the transclusion. This holds true for
transclusion of variables with `attribute=<<variable>>` and transclusion of
tiddler fields with `attribute={{title!!field}}`.
The reason is that wikification is relatively slow, and would complicate
the dependency tracking for the refresh mechanism. I think that most of the
time the wikification would not be what we want anyhow.
Can you outline the problem you're trying to tackle?
Best wishes
Jeremy.
