Subject: cleaned up user templates to not get changed on reload.  made setting
 a template add it to the template tools list and as a tools button.   fixed
 linking to parts of a template.   fixed disappearing templates caused by
 stacking view set a field with an empty key.   updated field assignment
 syntax in trees, dash field views, and key value box to all use :,:=,=,=:=
 syntax.  added text elide button.  added @(title) syntax for hyperlinking. 
 made using a template both inherit from the template to get default values
 and use the template to render.    fixed submenu placement of context menu. 
 updated RTF markdown doc.

Subject: fixed keyvaluebox to show props document, never the doc in the
 fieldKey slot.  changed computedFIelds to do mobx caching.  changed text
 boxes to do updating from templates based on a fieldKey_autoUpdate flag
 combined with modification timestamps.  enabled comparison box to work with
 text fields in addition to docs.
