Tag chains

Describe the solution you'd like

In short, when you add a tag to a memo, the app adds preset chained/linked tags to the memo

Context: I have scenarios where for x amount of time, every time I use a given tag I would like additional tags to be added so I don't have to repetitively add tags or forget to add tags. e.g.

  • if you are taking notes on people and want to track their year in the role. The years tag will be the same for the whole year
  • if you are taking notes on a programming language, the version number of the language will be the same for many notes
  • if you are going on holiday the destination of the holiday will be the same for many notes
  • etc

What this could look like:

  • Add a settings page for tag chains which would allow for a table like view of main tags on the left and then an input box to provide a list of chained tags on the right.
  • After writing the memo the app scan the memo for tags, compares them with the left side of the table tags, for the matches found create a tag cloud at the end of the memo with the corresponding right side of the table tags.
  • Post memo creation tag management is done on a tag by tag basis so no need to for e.g. delete all chained tags when the main tag is deleted.

i appreciate this feature is on the larger side, but thought I'd share the idea and see if there is any interest in it
