Thank you so much!
Here is the code I actually used:
tags =
this.wiki.getTiddler(this.getVariable("currentTiddler")).getFieldString("tags");
See, I wasn't far off with my prediction of what the API would look like,
just couldn't find it. Shame there's no reference, would have saved me a
few hours.
Thanks again!
