I very much agree, *targetTiddler* would be a better choice of parameter than *currentTiddler*. Perhaps a core function could ensure that all action widgets actually identify the target they act on in the exact same way: $tw.wiki.getTarget(title); ...using *title* as the target, otherwise falling back to using the value stored in *targetTiddler*. Not sure if there are differences, but widgets would call that function with whatever attribute the user is asked to use for specifying the tiddler title, e.g. *tiddler*, *$tiddler*, or *param*.
