Mat, You ask "How can I ensure a tiddler is not overwritten" but if it is and you know it has being and you can recover it then do you have what you need?
If so there are dozens of ways to to achieve this, within noteself all versions are retained, there is this plugin http://j.d.revisions.tiddlyspot.com/ There is a trails plugin In some ways it is actually about your workflow. Your tiddler generation tool can test for the existence of a tiddler first or using the correct method to create tiddlers will not overwite but increment the title with a number. If you generate and import tiddlers the bundles plugin can test for overwrite before import and keep track of all imports in the import bundle. I worry about the number of cats that get "skinned" given tiddlywiki "has so many ways to skin a cat".
