I 100% agree with you Mark that a Dynalist built into TW would be a killer app. I also think the same about Anki, and am working with Simon to achieve that as well!
If we could get one or two killer, easy to use and easy to follow "applications" built into TW like that, I think it will do much to bring TW to a much larger audience. On a related note, I have personally built a Paper/Reference management system into TW that I am happy with, and have in the back of my mind to distil into a plugin/edition for demonstration as well.
