Isn't that what the TOC macros already do for you? Let you create a multi-step table of contents?
So a tiddler called "embedded" that is tagged with "Question" will appear under a top tiddler called Question. Likewise, a tiddler with a question "Can't embed QWidget in QML?" and tagged with "embedded" will appear beneath tiddler "embedded". How do you have your tiddlers tagged, and in what way do you consider their display to be incorrect? BTW, there are at least 4 other types of TOC macros to choose from, in case you want a different presentation style. Just search for "Example Table of" at tiddlywiki.com Good luck!
