Hi Metabele,

I see now, it really is (or started out) as find and replace. And so, you 
didn't expect the target to be properly fitlered first (to only apply to 
tiddlers where a given tag was found). You only wanted to add (/replace) 
when you found (a given tag) *through your widget* first ...and then later, 
you also used it as a way to always just add at tag when, nothing to "find" 
was specified.

Mhhh, I do wonder though, when you used mangletags inside a button, what 
good would be showing that button if it would not do anything in the end? 
...in the case that a tiddler did not have that tag that you wanted to 
replace with another one.

This terminology is what was a little confusing, to me, about your widget. 
When it comes to tagging, I know adding and removing ...and so a more 
complex "replace only when found" would have been the exceptional case that 
might have benefited from a dedicated flag / parameter to be triggered. But 
for you, it was the basic paradigm based on which the widget was built, and 
the rest is history. ^_^

Best wishes,
