TW core (in particular, the FileSavingMechanism).  The 'template' param 
only accepts plain text and two special variable references ($name$ and 
$value$).  It has very limited ability control the output format.  Using 
<$list> allows you to provide whatever output formatting you like.

Also, you don't need to use <$wikify> to get the current tiddler's title, 
and you don't need to provide the tiddler="..." param to <$text> and 
<$view> because the <<currentTiddler>> is used by default.  You can reduce 
the code to just 3 lines:
<$list filter="[<currentTiddler>fields[]] -[[text]]" variable="fieldname">
   <$text text=<<fieldname>>/>: <$view field=<<fieldname>>/><br>
</$list>
