Hi Jeremy, thanks for the explanation, that makes sense to me.
Right now it was still quite hard to get TiddlyWeb and TW5 working together for someone with no prior knowledge like me (and would have been impossible without Chris' help). So I thought maybe I could contribute some docs to describe how to set everything up. But I'm not sure where the best place to do so would be. I see that Chris' pull request merges the TW5-specific changes into the 'tw5tank' edition. But then there is also a 'tw5tiddlyweb' edition, which would maybe be the better place?
