Once I understand how to make my own and "package" a command using your 
tool, I will have a better idea, I am glad you support this approach.

That would be the ideal, but still not essential. Not every one (like me) 
are so used to submitting items to a repo, or using GitHub.

There are a range of methods to achieve things in tiddlywiki, I am talking 
about gradually supporting them using your tool. An example may be someone 
wanting add a new custom field to tiddlers with a given tag etc..

Great to know you already have some ideas here. This can be developed in 
time.

Sorry, what I mean is ctrl-p operates at the whole of wiki level. eg ctrl-P 
"wel" opens the welcome tiddler. I am wondering if we could do the same 
when in a text field editing content so ctrl-p in a text field would insert 
[[Welcome]] into the tiddler, not unlike the current editor toolbar button 
(link Icon) to insert a wikitext link
but making use of Command Palette features.

Basically adding a way to add tags to the current tiddler by typing into 
command pallet.

Thanks again, Like all good innovations in tiddlywiki, they open numerous 
new possibilities as does your solution.
