F, I'm not a huge fan of my approach - it seems wrong to repurpose the user name as a temporary tag. However in practice, it works pretty well. There'd be some trickiness with editing a tiddler to add a tag that is removed on the next edit - essentially the last change would have to add the appropriate tags and the person doing the boilerplate updates would have to keep chasing the tag.
I really don't want to trust the users to remember to pull the tag. Use should be trivial. I assumed that by simply hijacking the timeline display that I'd miss something - the RSS feed and possibly others. Maybe I could hack the tag retrieval to force the excludeLists tag when the user is "nobody" but don't actually save that tag to the tiddler. Ian.
