Josiah,

I understand you grief at the possible loss, I experienced it myself. 
However I bit the bullet and moved to the latest version with ease (keeping 
ESR on my computer in case seriously required. Some of the lost function 
has re-appeared in updates or new plugins and as you suggested new 
functionality in TiddlyWiki is making up for some of it, like its all text 
to edit in an external browser is replaced by the code mirror plugin. Fire 
Fox profiles ? I use Chrome users to allow independent logins to similar 
accounts, why are you using these profiles? 

Any way I am suggesting we can work together to find replacements and try 
and avoid ESR because it is "the past" if you know what I mean.

Regards
Tony
