I think I am getting it. It's hard to know how to explain things for
developer DIYers (like me) and end-user DIYers both at the same time. And
then there are people with more important things to do :). But I see your
point.

When I published TiddlyServer, I did not foresee the discussion Firefox
would generate, nor the role TiddlyServer would play in that discussion. My
goal in making it was to make data folder wikis as flexible as single file
wikis, thus the emphasis on data folders.

I'll try to not overload people with technical details, except in technical
discussions such as this one.

Thanks,
Arlen
