I would like to use the ISO week date format for the title of new journal 
tiddlers and elsewhere, since I find it practical to be aware of the week 
day in combination with a sortable date format.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601#Week_dates
YYYY-Www-D or YYYYWwwD

E.g. 2021-w36-4 for thursday of week 36, 2021-09-09.

I can not see a way to get the week day number in the built in date format 
tokens.

https://tiddlywiki.com/#DateFormat

The closest I've got is YYYY-W0WW-ddd, but that renders as 2021-W36-Thu, 
which will not sort alphanumerically in date order like an ISO date would.

I can see that the template tokens are implemented in a system tiddler 
named $:/core/modules/utils/utils.js.

Getting the day of week is trivial in JavaScript, e.g. adding a token 
matching a single "D" for this:

[/^D/, function() {
return date.getDay() || 7;
}]

The utils.js tiddler seems to contain a lot of other stuff however, and I 
guess local changes would have to be merged on achieving updates of 
TiddlyWiki.

Maybe there are other ways to achieve custom date formatting of this kind 
in TiddlyWiki?
