I understood the request to mean that a new field would be added that
contained words or phrases that are not easily/naturally added to the
description or synopsis field. Search would just have to also check for
matches against the strings contained in the proposed tags field.
What would adding a query language for tags bring us that would outweigh
the cost of implementing it? Wouldn’t it solve most of the problems if
we just added a field holding “additional” search terms for all those
useful terms that are not otherwise contained in the description or
synopsis?
