I'm hesitant to stick my nose into this discussion, as I could not in any way be considered a serious TW developer. But I did want to ask whether there's been any thought about working on this problem from the other end: trying to get browser development (Mozilla being perhaps the most tractable?) to become conscious of TiddlyWiki and other in-browser applications that rely on the ability to carry out "insecure" actions. It seems that the Microsoft model of providing "security" by simply prohibiting the user from interacting with the computer except in specific pre-determined ways is being somewhat broadly embraced. I would hate to see the major browsers lock down so tightly that even existing innovative technologies like TW are excluded, to say nothing of limiting the possibilities for future development. It seems to me that TiddlyWiki has some standing in the Web community and might be able to influence the course of development in the direction of secure models to ALLOW file saving rather than in a more prohibitive direction.
