Currently, the <$edit-text> widget doesn't do anything with the enter key.
It also ignores any 'child content' (i.e., anything between <$edit-text>
and </$edit-text>). If we add a handler
to $:/core/modules/widgets/edit-text.js to catch the enter key, we could
then use it to trigger <$action> widgets defined as content of the
$edit-text widget, just like the content of <$button>...</$button>. If no
action widgets are defined for the edit field, it would still work as it
does today.
With this additional ability for the edit-text widget to invoke actions ,
we could then modify the $:/core/ui/EditTemplate/tags definition, changing
this:
<$edit-text tiddler="$:/temp/NewTagName" .../>
to this:
<$edit-text tiddler="$:/temp/NewTagName" ...>
<$action-sendmessage message="tm-add-tag" param={{$:/temp/NewTagName}}>
<$action-setfield tiddler="$:/temp/NewTagName" text="">
</$edit-text>
Thus, as you type text, it is saved in $:/temp/NewTagName, and 'enter'
invokes the action widgets to set the tag from the temp value, and then
clear the tag input so it is ready to add another tag.
