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.
