As a first step, improved JSON handling would help the ecosystem. That is, TiddlyWiki's "shallow" parsing of JSON structures needs improving, IMO. Javascript isn't going anywhere (not for a long time, anyway). Everything that happens in TiddlyWiki is marshaled by/through Javascript. *JSON* (as Javascript's native data interchange format), is (should be) therefore, the "currency of choice" for any Javascript ecosystem. Indeed, just as it is in TiddlyWiki right now, but *moreso*. How that might be exposed to the masses to get back what you're asking for, I'm really not sure. Maybe (*maybe!*) some JSON-defined ASTs, providing the mappings of terms-to-productions (yes, even regexes) would work? > Or provide easier access to the multiple simple systems that already exist > for markup? > > Not sure I know what this means... what are these "simple systems" you refer to?
