Thanks again for the details, Patrick.

My usecase:

When I see an existing tiddler body text, I don't switch away my eyesight
to look for a button, no matter how close it might be at that moment. I
always just click on the body text itself, which is usually much more
likely just under the mouse, or even it's not, it'd still be a lot bigger
to aim at than a button.

One has to agree that the text area is usually much bigger than a button
and intuitively, it IS the thing you'd like to edit, right?



Thanks,
Beinan
