registrierungs genervter Give it time and I think you may not think <$for-each>...</$for-each> would be a better name for the *list* widget
The filters that drive the ListWidget, SetWidget and Filtered Transclusions do a great deal including having their own each[] operators within. There is a very good reason not to call if "for each" because, because there is no single thing that you are listing "for each". In common code you may say "for each tiddler" or "for each user-field" but in filters you can combine these, including retrieving values. You can write filters that duplicate a for-each structure but these are only a subset of what can be achieved. List is well kept ambiguous if you ask me.
