Tobias Beer's excellent tbGTD <http://tbgtd.tiddlyspot.com/#desk> uses a remarkably clever tagging scheme, which I'm considering implementing in my own, but here are gonna be problems.
It has what amounts to hierarchical tags, with action priority context project stage area realm contact as the root tags. The clever bit is the symbols in front of all of the tags directly "below" each of those roots. If you want to create a tiddler tagged with "action", instead of tagging "action," you would actually tag your tiddler with #done #future #next #queued or #waiting. My original instinct would have been to tag it as "action" and "next", but this way I can keep the upper levels of the hierarchy clean. My first way there, any "action" would show up in the hierarchy as directly below "action," which would be problematic, especially if you have hundreds of them. The different symbols, # ^ @ $ ยง & - ? they provide a brilliant shortcut method to easily identifying which tags are categories of "root" tags. See tbgtd.tiddlyspot.com/#help and click tbGTD, and then Categories, for more details. Here's my issue: Using $ as a prefix to help identify tag category will conflict in TW5, and I want to make it as painless as possible to eventually migrate on over to TW5, so I don't want to be using tags that will make that difficult. Are there any other symbols or practices which I should avoid in my naming and tagging schemes, in order to make it TW5 friendly?
