I've been experimenting with using "typed" links in my wiki, inspired by this 
post <https://groups.google.com/g/tiddlywiki/c/C0CqNyKU1Jc/m/5sFLzH7XAQAJ> 
from a few months back.

For example if I want to link to a food item, but also indicate that it is 
an ingredient, I write:

{{tomatoes||ingredient}}

Where I have the following "type" tiddler:

title: ingredient
tags: type
text: <$link to=<<currentTiddler>><<currentTiddler>></$link>

I'm wondering if there is anyway to generalise this so that I don't 
actually have to add the template to the text field of every "type" tiddler 
I create? Specifically I want to leave the text field free for other 
content, and also be able to use *any* tiddler with the tag "type" in the 
same way. So all I would have to do is add a tiddler with the title 
"ingredient" and the tag "type" and immediately be able to use it as a link 
template.

Alternatively maybe there is a way to generate multiple *macros* in a 
similar way? A tiddler with the title "ingredient" and the tag "type" would 
trigger the implicit creation of an "ingredient" macro. 

I can't see how this would be possible, but I'm wondering if there's a 
trick I'm missing?
