I mentioned something similar in another related thread:

https://groups.google.com/d/msg/tiddlywikidev/GN--K_hYI-c/PVQdChI-AwAJ

"We can even imagine simplifying while expanding the supported editions of 
TW:

   1. Bare-Bones
   2. Feature Rich
      - Comes loaded with many plugins making it easier for new users to 
      "get started". 
      3. Niche:
      - Writer
      - Student/Researcher
      - Dungeon Master/Gamer
      - etc. - These will probably just differ in *style*/pre-loaded 
      content, not really functionality. 
   
This has turned into a great thread! Thank you all for your useful and 
thoughtful comments. Let's keep the discussion going!
