I thought that SyncFileTiddler was a great feature available to TWC, and would like to see it available to TW5. It allowed you to "connect" another, possibly larger, TW file temporarily. So, for instance, if you were doing a report on Shakespeare, you might pull in a TW with his works and run searches. You wouldn't corrupt the Shakespeare data by accident, and you wouldn't have to hop back and forth between tabs. When you were done, you could disconnect. This allowed you to keep your main TW's size low, while leveraging other data sets.
Maybe something like Jed's system could be used for TW5, but currently it actually brings in everything that is imported. If the plugin marked everything that was brought in (tagged it), then I suppose you could delete it in a batch process later. Still not as convenient as SFT.
