Pipe delimited tags? Or stick with commas and expect people to use

Depends on UI. I would rather type
one| two words| etc...
than
['one', 'two words', 'etc...']
Well actually I would rather type:
one, two words, etc...
I don't think it's unreasonable to expect there to be punctuation
restrictions in tags, or even no spaces and no caps, as that is common
practice elsewhere.
one, two-words, st-petersburg-russia
I agree fully here. Pipes are less 'natural' when thinking about
separating items in a list, leading to cognitive burden. As for the no
spaces and no caps suggestion, that wouldn't be much of a problem, so
long as hyphens are allowed. I would also like to suggest an optional
tag prefix (such as '#') for those used to it in other systems. For
example, the tags this-is-a-tag and #this-is-a-tag would refer to the
same tag. Perhaps that could be specified by a setting in
myLeoSettings.leo?
Tags will be unordered?
Personally, I like the 1st tag to be important, the 2nd perhaps, and
the rest less so. After 3rd order _really_ doesn't matter to me.
Again, agreed. Primary/secondary/tertiary is pretty much the way humans
organize things mentally. Order is good, but useless after a certain
threshold. However, it's just as easy to order the whole list as it is
to order the first two elements.
... Kent's comment that
adding tags to nodes should feature some kind of autocompletion / drop
down list makes sense too.
This would be an important-to-vital feature to avoid the proliferation
of tags over time -- in a few months (or a week!) I will spin my
wheels trying to recall if I tagged that 'settings-leo' or
'leo-settings'.

This. A thousand times this. One further, perhaps tags should be
integrated into the Nav (quicksearch.py) plugin?
