Hi Mat

We generally introduce transclusions when we identify a portion of a shadow 
tiddler that would benefit from being independently controllable. For example, 
look at the change to add configurability to the autofocus attribute of the 
sidebar search:

I think you’re asking for the ability to perform those sort of overrides 
without modifying the tiddler in question. There’s no obvious way to implement 
such a feature. But I’d be concerned about the resulting complexity: with this 
arrangement, it wouldn’t be sufficient to look at the source of a particular 
tiddler in order to understand what it’s doing; one would also need to find and 
review all the overrides that might affect the operation of the tiddler.

Best wishes

Jeremy
