Definitely. It's the same problem. I'd so love to be able to tag files
and just keep my most-used tags on the desktop instead of a bunch of
folder aliases. I want to be able to find data the way I *think* of
the data and the way I *need* it rather than by sorting through the
system's mandated organizational structure to remember how I named and
saved it at some point in history.

Exactly!
