It had better work with normal TW, I use it :)

I hope the foundation that FND has provided is the 'current' way of
doing things and integrates best.

I hope to include *all* the original features (including using tags as
the prompt) plus the following :-
* auto re-encrypt on timeout (I thought that was cool)
* Ability to encrypt a tiddler without tagging it using the 'encrypt'
button - you won't have a password prompt - it's up to you to remember
the password
* Ability to decrypt a tiddler, encrypted with the previous point,
using the 'decrypt' button
* Easier localisation

This would probably form my initial release of TiddlerEncryptionPlugin
4.0

Next,

My current usage pattern is to have an unencrypted tiddler (contains
the non-sensetive stuff, still allowing me to search) [include]
relevant slices of an encrypted tiddler (which contains the sensetive
stuff like passwords). This pattern means I can still search (for
example, a web site user/password) but can't see the password till I
decrypt the password tiddler.

What *I* would really like to have is some way of identifying
portion(s) of a tiddler and and only encrypting those portions!  My
initial thoughts are something like special tags <encrypt "Password
prompt"></encrypt> which only show in edit mode. Encrypted text would
still be surrounded by the <encrypt> tags (which only show in edit
mode) but would also be surrounded by {{{}}} to prevent wikiword
translation in normal display. Maybe even the <encrypt> tags would
cause a 'tooltip' to be shown, indicating that the text is encrypted.

I don't know how this would sit with those that use 'pretty editors',
though.

If I could sort this whole concept out, then, it's possible, I might
discard the 'tagged' method of encryption in favour of this new
mechanism.

I am also looking for guidance on how to make a plugin 'localisation
friendly' - are there standard frameworks in place in TW?

Suggestions would be welcomed.
