Mat, Perhaps my answer was too short, to make clear what I was trying to say.

An example may be since your "ubiquitous hooks" [are] on all visual parts" that the related fields are prefixed "ui-" for user interface, imagine a field called ui-list on any tiddler that would transclude the listed items just as the view-template does its items tagged $:/tags/ViewTemplate, or a ui-viewtemplate field that specified an alternate view template for the current tiddler. I would be in favour of moving tags into field values where possible since tags are key to the users experience of a non-linear personal web notebook. As I said before the current conventions *overlap a universal field idea*. Providing Ubiquitous hooks also needs to be "universal" and should avoid overlap. <:-) > I hope that helps, I in know way want to interfere with your interesting ideas, Regards Tony -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWikiDev" group.
