This mixes together two separate issues. Tags are, as I have already agreed, an excellent way of doing a search mechanism. They don't get rid of the need to have a workspace, though. Suppose I want to switch back and forth between five very different brushes. Must I remember and select a set of tags each time I switch? That would be very unpleasant. No, whether or not there is a tag-based search system, there still needs to be a way for the user to maintain a workspace holding a limited set of arbitrarily chosen brushes. -- Bill
