Hello I have been using TW5  for a while and I would wish for a little extra safety and convenience, specifically a legacy plugin request and a few formatting/style questions.

Could someone bring the trash plugin back for tw5? Rather precarious to not have a recycle bin. 'PartTiddler' also seemed rather cool  allows the labeling of parts of a tiddler so they can be linked to  separately, and aggregated elsewhere if needed) but since this function overlaps with Transclusion, my priority is the Recycle bin,

http://ido-xp.tiddlyspot.com/#TrashPlugin|

Plus, what does it take to make long tiddlers scroll within the browser window-esp in edit mode?   Speaking of edit mode my dark tag-pills have dark text in edit mode, light in view mode. Can it just be light all the time beyond a certain RGB or whatever level? 

Finally, the invariant line spacing in edit mode is restrictive.One enter is nothing, two  enters makes a giant leap but  If I hit enter many times I get no extra spaces. Same things with spacebar, I can't make indents with it. Granularity would help, why should monospacing require  [` `] marks. Can I map the '<br> function onto my return key, or something?

The 3rd icon from the right in the editor mode will let you set the pixel height. Once you have filled up all the lines, the scroll bar will appear.

Good luck,

For marking segments in a tiddler and reuse them in other tiddlers I made the extract macro:

I do not know of a way to link into tiddlers. So this wish is not covered. (An old unsolved problem with roots in the special usage of # in TW5.)

Linking into Tiddlers is not by default possible because "#" is reserved solely for tiddler titles in TW5. I also have interest in in-tiddler links. There is a discussion of some possible ways to deal with this here: HREF Linking Revisited
