One simple way to get tags is to simply include a line or lines like this 
in the zettel node:

:tag: tagname

Note that you *must* include the space after the second colon, at least for 
it to render nicely in Restructured Text.

Now you can search on *tagname *or *:tag: tagname *or even* : tagname.* 
Granted, you can't easily get a listing of all the tags - until we have a 
zettelkasten plugin that can create one - but you could maintain a zettel 
that only contains the tag names. It would be almost as good.

I've attached an example of the RsT rendering of a node with this format of 
metadata.  BTW, notice the *:links:* item?  I've started including them for 
my links, with the future in mind.  It should not be hard to parse out the 
links from those items when we have a plugin going.  Probably we will be 
able to to it just with a command, no plugin needed.  The command could be 
bound to a key, so, for example, *ALT+F6* would take you right to the 
linked node.  The node ids are not going to change, so no matter how we 
implement it, this metadata will be useful. 

I am unsure, though, whether to allow more than one link per line.  One 
link per line would be easier to write the code for, yet more than one 
would be easier to author and would reduce the visual clutter.  I'm open to 
suggestions here (and everywhere else!).
