Hi Philippe

It sounds like the question here is “Why might I want to use the qualify 
macro?”. There is an explanation in the docs, but it might not be super-clear:

http://tiddlywiki.com/#StateMechanism <http://tiddlywiki.com/#StateMechanism>

Basically, the qualify macro is useful if you are using the list widget to 
create repeating user interface elements. For example, the $:/TagsManager shows 
a listing of all of the tags, each of which has a separate dropdown. The 
qualify macro is used within the tag manager to generate a unique state tiddler 
title for each tag, ensuring that the dropdowns operate independently.

Best wishes

Jeremy.
