Folks-

I've been thinking about and discussing with some of my colleagues  
different workflows that involve Skim and/or BibDesk. One of them  
asked if annotations could be tagged or have any other type of  
metadata associated with them; for example, if one is going through  
documents looking for quotes from a particular person, each quote  
could be highlighted and tagged. Then a file (or multiple files, if  
doing this from BibDesk) could be searched for that particular tag  
separate from the content of the actual highlighting.

It occurred to me that there is already some metadata associated with  
annotations (color, line width, etc.), so this might be an easily  
extensible property of skim notes. Or it might be a pain to implement,  
or impossible, or not worth it.

Thoughts? Are there suggestions for ways this could be done within the  
existing program that I'm entirely unaware of?

Thanks
-AHM
