Hi Mark, Jeremy, I was just issuing a pull request for other clarifications regarding External content/text. So I added a commit to reflect your discussion about what wiki configuration means in this context: https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/pull/2803/commits/aedb096d780e1c02d6cc626cadfebd197c2d157b. Let me know if I should correct it further.
