Thanks Mat. 

My requirement is slightly different from a select widget (with custom 
entries) - I want something like the tag picker edittemplate. The 
difference being that the tag-picker allows for multiple tags to be picked 
and deleted. My workflow would be something like:

   1. Allow the user to filter and select from list of tiddlers in a 
   dropdown
      1. If selected, the tiddler title is added to the edit field as an 
      encapsulated tag pill, which can be deleted using the cross button.
      2. Allow multiple such selections (or limit to one, depending on 
      configuration)
   2. If the user writes a string and presses enter, create a new tiddler 
   with the title if the tiddler doesnt exist.
