I have been playing around with Eric's "hack" today. And I created an 
editortoolbar button to insert the macro.

Used in conjunction with the Freelinks plugin, this appears to be a really 
great way to create and read content:

1. Create an article with minimal content, and add subordinate content that 
can be viewed in modals without leaving the originating tiddler. This is 
helpful since closing a target tiddler in some situations/view modes in 
TiddlyWiki does not take you back to the originating tiddler. 
2. By inserting the macro with a button, and inputting the title, you 
create a 'link' that shows the tiddler in the modal if it exists, and you 
have a button in the modal to create the tiddler in edit mode if it does 
not.
3. If you want links also without doing two separate steps, you can use the 
Freelinks plugin.

Now if only the comptext plugin gave you autocomplete suggestions for this 
macro as it does for links...but even so, it is a great process for writing 
articles uncluttered by all the details, but giving instant access to those 
details without leaving the context of the article.

Thanks again, Eric!
