Hi Tobias,

A $:/type tiddler, which will be used as tag. This tiddler defines the

Its a design choice. And I have several reasons for that. Previously, in 
http://tesis.tiddlyspot.com/, I used the field *catégorie* for the same 
purpose, but it was a pain in the neck. Tags are much easier to use, for 
instance in list filters; they are easier to assign, as you point out, and 
other reasons… We could do the same with field instead of tags, or have 
both, but do not consider going that way until the plugin is stable enough.


The macro <<tabContents>> uses the tag caption and icon to create the 
>> heading of the tab, so it's imperative to fill the contents.tag with the 
>> type tiddler you created.

Yes, it might be a good thing to avoid interferences with other macros.
