...but then a widget can have a number of parameters all of which may want 
to be computed via wikified contents.

(How) Is that possible right now? Having a field set to the "results of a 
filter", irrespective of whether or not there is a *[count[]]* filter?

Also, looking at...

http://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/#ActionSetFieldWidget

I am seeing...

<$action-setfield $tiddler="$:/state/tab-1749438307" $field="text" 
$value="$:/core/ui/ControlPanel/Appearance"/>

To be honest, those numbers right there are precisely why I don't trust the 
state-paradigm along. This looks too arbitrary to feel reliable and to 
cryptic to be readable.

Best wishes, Tobias.
