[Feature request] Allow tags to be grouped and ordered

jazow

I would love to be able to group and organise tags just like I can collections of references.

Currently, when using tags I am doing this in a way (e.g,. Rating: Low, Rating: Medium, Rating: High) and even lower levels (Rating: Low -- small sample, Rating: Low -- no control). But when doing this lots and having lots of lower levels of tags, this becomes harder to view the tags. It is also not great because I cannot order the tags.

A solution is to have tag categorise (e.g., Rating) and sub-categories (Low, medium, high). The user should be able to order these and colour them as they like.

Here is a mock-up:

What do you all think? Would this be useful? Any issues with it?

I have met the same situation. Color labels are more intuitive, but there may be more than one label associated with a color theme, and when adding more labels the system prompts that only 9 labels can be added.

I agree, having the possibility to organise tags into subtags would be great, it's really a feature I am currently missing

This plugin allows nested tags and some other great features:
