I'd like to highlight a feature that will be included in the next release 
of TW and is currently available via the pre-release: 

*Keyboard support for the search field and the tag picker* (thanks to the 
hard work of @BTC!). 

You can use the up and down arrow keys to select a search result or tag, 
and hit Enter to select it. Escape resets the search. It would be great to 
get some more testing and feedback on this feature, and I think it 
represents an opportunity to build some new interactions upon.

I've been playing with it yesterday as part of a commitment to do some 
further testing before the next TW release. Under the covers it uses a new 
macro called *keyboard-driven-input*.

As part of testing the re-usability of the macro, I've made a quick ten 
minute hack, cloning the search tiddler from the top menu to create a 
simple editor with a "navigation" field with keyboard support:

The keyboard-driven-input macro is by necessity not the easiest to 
understand how to use, so hopefully the additional example will help.

The editor itself is an extra lite approximation of my Notation editor, but 
it shows how easily such UIs can be created. 

*Aside (Floats):*
For those that have been following the demo I posted of Floats, you can get 
an idea of what I have in mind for it by using the temporary "Edit in 
float" button on any tiddler's toolbar, which opens that tiddler in the 
above mentioned editor, in a draggable, resizable float:

Now I just need to add support for easily toggling a float, as well as 
collapsing and docking at the edge of the screen.

Cheers,
Saq
