There are many users, that want to do this. It was possible some years ago 
but all major browser vendors decided, that this behaviour is a security 
risk. So they disabled the possibility to upload data from a file:// URL to 
an http:// URL. ... This lock down made live much more difficult for us.

If you directly want to edit content from the online TW you don't need to 
follow the answers, because they don't work that way. Dropbox would be 
possible to have "read only" public TWs. If you want to save to DP you need 
to edit on your device and let it sync with the public Dropbox folder using 
the DP drivers for your device.

TW is not optimized for collaborative editing yet.

This is for TWclassic. So most of the info wont work for TW.

Yes it can be done. There is a description at:

TW doesn't work very well with TiddlySpace. TW has no knowledge how to 
handle different bags in TS. I think nobody is investing the resources to 
implement TW plugins for TS because it's a "dead" platform. The servers are 
kept up and running, but that's it. There is no active development anymore. 
Sorry to say!
