Hi Felix,
So while I think your idea makes sense, I don't want to create redundant > ways of displaying information at the moment. Maybe also another > suggestion: You can give a tiddler a description field which is shown as > popup when hovering a node (view->global configuration). So, I used the text field and the tiddler content pops up as a tooltip. All it needs now is for it to be displayed in a box with a scroll bar and job done! I really do think this will be an enhancement and there is no duplication or redundancy involved. I'll copy into GitHub for you to look at another time.
