Hello,
I am not sure if square brackets are supposed to be allowed in tiddler
titles but I noticed that the automatic TOC builders do not like them much.
It tries to interpret the titles as filters in some way. This isn't an
issue with round or squiggly brackets but I can imagine that the same issue
that is interpreting this case might have problems with other special
character combinations. Double square brackets have a similar issue but
seem to give a different manifestation with the TOC is sorted than single
square brackets.
The following is a json export of a self contained group of Tiddlers
showing this problem. (I couldn't attach as a file for some reason but
cutting and pasting into a text file and importing that into any TiddlyWiki
should work fine):

]
I have worked around this just by using round brackets in place of square
ones. However, is there an official accepted way to "escape" these special
characters to avoid interpretation yet avoid tiddler naming/linking
nightmares?
Thanks,
