I was actually going to suggest exactly this as a way of getting "poor
man's" tagging in the current version of MoneyWell.

Assuming you utilize consistent keywords in all your memos, you can
quickly find all transactions with a particular "tag" just by using
the find feature. Depending on your needs, this may actually be
sufficient.

When MoneyWell eventually supports tagging, it should be
straightforward to convert tags embedded in the memo field into tags
using SQL, even if there is no built in way to do this. I'm actually
already doing this to some extent since I like to extract per-month
comments from the memo field of each bucket to include in my bucket
balance emails.
