Thanks Mario, Personally I feel the idea of a "second" tag-like field is of some importance but separate from improved field handling. I was part of that desire for additional tag like fields and for me it was so I could use tags for found relationships and the alternative tags for the logic/data model I built into a Wiki such subject areas, projects, references, keywords etc... as you say the list ops widget goes a long way to enabling this. The Gap we still face for tag-like fields, date fields and other advanced field handling is I believe very small, we just need a few features to make it easier to display, edit and create fields.
