A couple suggestions

I should start by saying that I'm a *huge* fan of RTM. I've been bouncing between task management packages for a while now but have stuck exclusively with RTM for the last couple months and am totally in love. The website has gotten me through my first semester of law school swimmingly. Thank you.
Now for the suggestions. The first has to do with tagging. I'm using RTM to implement a GTD setup, so I'm using tags for contexts and projects (with lists for action types like Actions, Someday/Maybe, Waiting, etc.). Contexts are prefixed with @, but no other symbol seems to work when I want to do project tags. Everything besides @ gets dropped, including !, #, etc. Is there a reason this is happening? Would it be possible to allow other symbols at the front of tags? I want this because it makes adding new tasks a snap. Currently, I can hit @ in the tag field and see a drop down list of all available contexts. This would be nice to be able to do for projects, as well.
Second, the URL field isn't all that useful for me right now. Clicking on it once a URL has been entered just edits that URL. I'd like to be able to open the URL in a new browser window by either clicking or, better yet, a keyboard shortcut.
Thanks again. This really is a terrific piece of software.

RE: the URL's
If I click on the blue, underlined URL that I've entered that website opens in a new Tab (or if it was a mailto: link, then it opens my email).
However, if I click on the grey chain icon, then it will open the field for editing.

Huh. For me, clicking on either edits the link. This is the case in both Camino and Safari.
