All, As a "want to be writer", I imagined using an outlier view with a toc in the left hand panel with the tools to add siblings view edit etc... wrapped around a Custom view/edit template.
a toggle to display the whole or part tree, as a transcluded "preview" with in line editing with a click. Once done with preview or recapping, also toggle to a final print mode with all the edit icons and tools removed. The idea would be to use tags like a normal toc to build the document structure and subtiddlers of the form tiddler/subtiddler to store writers/editors notes - you could also have a section in the toc that lists separately all the <<trl entries as suggested by BTC I think anything is possible here, the trick is knowing what is most important to us.
