May be we can make it configurable. ... There is a discussion going on (which you started <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/tiddlywiki/WtNz2X10jIA>) about having IDs vs. tiddler title. I didn't watch the thread closely, but I saw it ;) I think, it could be solved with uni-link ... but, I'm not sure if we could do it without some core improvements. ..

We will have to implement it at a very low level, so it basically works everywhere! IMO Tags are only 1 element here. ... I think, the main problem is speed. For the alias handling I did implement an "alias-cache" to speed up the de-/referencing process. .. But tagging itself is used a lot, to create the UI. So slowing down the tag-lookup mechanism may have a major performance impact. As an alternative: I did think about using / showing the caption of a tag, instead of the the tag. ... This would be a field to explore. ... and should be doable with UI changes only. ... using the same mechanism that uni-link uses for standad links already. > > - Search could also include searching aliases, without the need for > explict filtering. > > This should be an easy fix. ...
