I've been trying to work on some new mockups, and wanted to get some opinions before I show them. I'm running into an issue regarding tagging and presenting objects. Let's assume that we have a flat object space, and that we can apply tags to objects to be able to automatically sort them into groups. Let's also assume that we have projects, and projects can include objects of different types and with different tags. Thus, while tags and projects can both be used for grouping and organizing objects, tags create system-generated views (the system adds the contents), and projects are user-generated views (the user adds the contents).
Because tags and projects both occupy a similar role (as views on collections of objects), should a user be able to tag a project? If so, can I, as a user, have both an object tagged 'design' and a project tagged 'design'? And if I do a search on 'design', do I get both the objects and projects in my results list? Additionally, what should this results list look like? Should it be, in essence, a new project (meaning that all tag groups are really just system-generated projects)? If it is represented in a similar fashion as a project, we would end up with a project within a project... something we don't want. Any feedback would be much appreciated.
