I've posted an update that includes a first pass at the ability to rename
tiddlers, while keeping the tagging relationships intact. I've also
dispensed with the use of an import tiddler:

Use the "show toolbar" checkbox at the top of the sliced output to access
the renaming feature.

Best wishes

Jeremy.
