Tagging

mattsilv says:
Is there a way to tag something in the task name itself, by using a symbol, quotes, or something?

For example:

Task is:

Go to the grocery store. #errand

Instead of clicking the tag button and typing it, you can just type #tagname and automatically tag it. If something like this exists let me know, would greatly appreciate!

Pardon what must seem repetitive, but when I see the same good ideas surfacing over and over, I am compelled to note the fact.

The idea of parsing the text in the data entry field, and in inbound emails, has been around since RTM was wet behind the ears, and I have watched the idea resurface over and over.
