Hey, it's an interesting idea.

But one day or the other, someone will end up asking for this "tag
database" to be persisted and then the scheduler will slowly become
something very fat... I exaggerate...

In OpenWFEru (the workflow and BPM engine), the object that scheduled
a task keeps the job id reference (to unschedule it at will). You
might think of your job as resources linked to a scheduler trigger
(via the job id). Right, this task resource is out of the scheduler,
but well, the scheduler only cares about scheduling stuff...

Somehow, it's an interesting idea... I would implement it "memory
only", no persistence (like the whole scheduler), String tags.

job_ids = scheduler.find_job_ids 'elephant'

What do you think ?
