Mark et al.. I would of thought the tiddler could be saved as a "blob", that is the fields are just more details in the tiddler, all just one big text file. They only become meaningful when they are loaded into the Tiddly-wiki which knows about fields. The question is can you have variable length fields in MySQL? I think you must because WordPress stores posts this way.
With any database including Cloudant there would be methods to extract all content and save it in a file, and the schema. That is you back up at the database administrator level without any knowledge of tiddlywiki.
