Hi Tobias,
I didn't know about that discussion. Thanks!

Obviously, the kind of popup solution you propose would be great, even if I 
don't understand all the details of your proposition. I tried some time ago to 
adapt the tags selector in edit mode to work with other fields, but I failed 
since my knowledge of the internals isn't good enough.

For people like me, with structured tw, tags are easy to use and good to see in 
view mode, but meaningless. They just mean : there is some kind of relation 
between this and that, but I don't know what kind of relation it is.

What I try to do with the MagicTabs plugin (former BottomTabs, former Scholars, 
former... ) is to create meaningful (but generic) relationships between 
tiddlers with fields like: authors, about, source, parent. Then, I want to show 
these relationships : first by displaying the values of these fields as tags, 
but before the regular tabs (i.e. pseudo-tags on the left, real tags on the 
right); and second by displaying the contents of these related tiddlers using 
bottom tabs. That way, all the relevant information concerning, for instance, 
William Shakespeare, can be seen and accessed and incremented without leaving 
William Shakespeare's tiddler. 

Thus, any kind of mechanism to create meaningful but tags-like fields is more 
than welcome. 

Best wishes, 

Alberto
