Best,

Mentat looks interesting. Though to be clear what I'm looking for is to create draggable Tiddler containers (that I refer to as floats) independent of the StoryList. More like a floating popup that can be moved around and so that you can have an editor, reference docs or other tools at hand while working.
One of the things I did consider was to implement the floats as a separate story with their own StoryList and a custom storyview to make them appear over other content and draggable, resizable etc.
Regarding popups disappearing off the edge of the screen: it's intentional in the demo that you can drag past the edge of the screen but not entirely off the screen. And I think it would be handy to be able to optionally snap to screen corners. What needs handling is window resize, which could leave a float open but not visible.

I would think that the following would be useful ultimately within the float tool
- Close all
- Minimise all (to a tray ) like current drafts.
- Open, Close or minimise individual floats
- Respond the a background colour on the tiddler since they are almost post it notes
Cheers,Saq
A story river with floating tiddlers should ideally have extra handling for relative positions of tiddlers etc. I would say that I might play around with that some day but I strongly suspect Joshua would beat me to it.
