we may agree, to disagree here :) 

I think, we don't need a new filter syntax. We need better documentation 
for the existion one. Atm it is one page [1] TiddlerFilters.
IMO to unlock the power we'll need at least one example + description 
(what's going on) for every parameter on this page. 

+ With TW "the thing" is a tiddler. 
+ So imo there is some more background info needed about: "What is a 
Tiddler".
    + Some definitions ... eg: title, tags, shadow and system ... 
    + Why is it so powerfull ...
+ What does this mean for a user
+ What does this mean for a dev (eg: the mapping between edit mode and the 
file on the harddisk)
+ ...

The filter syntax parser may need some adjustments too, to make everything 
consistent. eg: whitespace for readability should not disable the filter 
function. 

@Jeremy,
I'm not complaining about the docs. I'm just thinking about, how to improve 
it :)

have fun!
