Yes, those tags. Also spotlight comments. Many programs (e.g., Pages,  
EagleFiler) that organize and manage publications and information make  
use of them. I think it would be good for BibDesk to make use of them  
as well. At a minimum, I wonder if it would be possible to have an  
option to import them as keywords that is part of the BibDesk data  
model.

I'll check these out, but it is not like having a native solution in  
BibDesk.

Thanks.
