Yea. The finished stuff may land there by default.

Yes. ... I still think, I'll create a bundler plugin, to "protect" the

Yea. I'm proud about this feature. .. It also links the new bundling stuff 
to the existing core functionality.

That was the intention.

As written above. I'd like to create an edition for the presentation.

We will see, how this workflow works out. ... It was the easiest way I 
could imagine as the minimal working function.

Interesting approach.

 Since plugins are tiddlers, it accidentally worked out of the box :))

Will think about this. ... may be a new "stamp-snippet" in the edit 
toolbar. ?!?

Hmmm, ... As a type of TOC... will need to have a closer look here. Not 
everyone may need / want this.

Should be possible. ... we'll see.

When the import is "completed", we could add a ... "create bundle" button. 
.. Will need to have a closer look. .. not sure.

Should be a relatively simple PR for the core docs.

will have a look

Yes, ... but ... Bulk deleting is a very destructive action. Se we will 
need to be very careful here.

I do understand this need. ... Bulk importing and then deleting stuff, you 
don't need is much easier then importing one by one, what you need. 

have fun!
