@Tobias Beer & @PMario Thanks for the comments guys, you're welcome. :)
@Tobias Beer what you describe in that link is a very well worded
description of the limitations I found with the current set of tools, and
exactly what I envision would be a perfect solution. I sure as hell would
love to see it as a plugin, very interesting discussion.
I made a few (very) crude attempts at implementing that myself, by editing
the current tag editor tiddler $:/core/ui/EditTemplate/tags, to read from a
custom field and list entries from different tiddlers.
I copied code from the current documentation and from a few tips and
research I did around the forum, but eventually came to a halt because I
couldn't get it to list tags individually, they were grouped together as if
the whole content of each tiddler's custom field was a single tag.
I later came up with the solution above which kind of works acceptably for
my use case; so I'll leave the code here for anyone smarter than me who
cares to look at it. It's probably the wrong way to go about doing it, but
maybe it'll inspire someone who actually knows what he's doing to complete
it or implement it correctly as a plugin.
This would go as a tiddler tagged with $:/tags/EditTemplate for a custom
field named "custom_field_name"
\define lingo-base() $:/language/EditTemplate/
\define tag-styles()
background-color:$(backgroundColor)$;
\end
