Hi Jan

Yet two my mind there is two missing features:

1,000 times easier than introducing full support for slicing.

My favoured approach to fix this is to introduce a mode that makes
transclusions visible, so that one can directly click on a link to open the
target tiddler.

As discussed elsewhere, I'd favour support for automatically replacing
references to a tiddler when it is renamed.

Best wishes
