Ah, take all the time you need. We have busy lives. Also, to be fair, it's probably better for you to ignore me and work on those awesome things in your freetime. I adore what you've done.
Autocompletions are useful if you know roughly what code you want to write in the first place. Tiddlywiki could make even stronger use of them, no doubt. It's much faster to build syntactically correct expressions with it, and it can lower the friction to build, in this case, filter expressions quite rapidly. I do not deny this, and, of course, I'm in favor of such development. My point is that it only helps someone who already knows what they are doing because it is not an abstraction. I do not know why a graphical solution to constructing filter expressions would necessarily complicate the flexibility. I am surprised to see this claim from you since your tool appears to be an exception. I am likely wrong though. It is obvious you see very far. Further, I'm not sure how to conceive of the backlinks idea well enough. I think it could have its own TOC or Tiddlymap which is dynamically constructed. Picking links on a wiki and computing/seeing how they are related to each other via other chains of links seems doable, but I don't know how to visually present it in a satisfactory way.
