There’s no UI for deleting tiddlers from within a plugin, but there’s no reason such an operation couldn’t be implemented. As a plugin distributor, I’m not super keen on encouraging people to delete tiddlers from within plugins that I distribute. There’s a good chance that they will delete something that is necessary. As the developer, I then have to laboriously help them debug why things don’t work. Tech support is much easier if everyone is using the same thing. > "Bundles" I was thinking more of a way of storing & transporting Tiddlers > that I could then freely delete what I don't need. There’s no UI at present but plugins would absolutely support that use case. > A sort of registration system.

Hmmm that sounds like a different thing, not so much a container as metadata that identifies a bunch of separate tiddlers. Those are fundamentally different approaches, and not equivalent. The closest we have to the manifest idea is the new <$draggable> widget that can be used to drag an arbitrary group of tiddlers identified by a filter.
