Untitled tiddlers don't give usefull information #12

Bullet point-based hierarchical note taking structure is great. However, there would be two many tiddlers without meaningless titles shown at places like recent tiddlers and references.

I would suggest giving them a field when generating and ignoring them from recent tiddlers based on this field. As for the references, I think displaying the top-level tiddlers a block belongs to instead of the block itself would be better. And a popup box with the contents of the block can be shown when mouses hover on the reference tag.

You can already preview the references blocks at the bottom of a tiddler by hovering on them while holding the shift-key.

The title is set to an unique ID so that every node-tiddler can be completely independent from any other tiddler. For the recent tab I might add an option to show/hide node tiddlers.

The preview feature is awesome. But I think aggregation could make it easier to get the information.

For example, if we have one top-level tiddler named A and two blocks of A that refers to another tiddler B, named c and d. In the current version, there would be two references in B, with the unique id of c and d. However, we could not know what they are until we hover on them and preview them separately.

If there is an aggregation mechanism. There could be only one reference A in B, and when we hover on it, the preview would be c and d(other blocks in A can be hidden here). Then we would roughly know what it is by reading the title of A, and we can know the exact blocks with preview.

I think the aggregation function is great, but to implement it I would need to change the way the preview plugin works as well. I will update this issue when I find a workaround.

The new get-stream-root[] filter would be useful here: https://saqimtiaz.github.io/streams/#Streams%200.2%20improvements%2FFilters
