Fat Fingers for Tags

I know this is a small request but I would imagine I am not the only person with Fat Fingers at times. What I mean by Fat Fingers is that I spell the tag word incorrectly without knowing.

Request:

I would love to see a Tag list as I type tags into the tag field. It would work like Quick Search in that it will filter any existing tags that match the letters as you type.

Benefits:

This will accomplish several things in my mind.

1.It will make adding tags that you already use much faster.

2. It will give you a warm fuzzy feeling that you are using the Tag you intended.

3. Prevent you from typing the Tag incorrectly and having some weird tab in the Tag view that has that one task that you messed up on.

Just hoping is all.

This is one of the most needed features for Toodledo in my opinion. I would prefer a tag cloud or list of previously used tags to pick from, but either way would be good. This would also be a huge help for the iPhone app.

ditto, also maybe a way to enter an expression so it would generate a recursive number for each task entered, for logging.

I may be dreaming here, but it seems that Toodledo added this and did not mention it.

Can anyone else confirm that Tags now show a pull down list of existing tags based on what you type?

I'm afraid you are in fact dreaming. Firefox does this for you. The main problem is that your form history is erased with your other private data when you clear it. You can change that setting, but then you can never delete any form data that you have used anywhere from your history.

Some web browsers will do this for you, but we also plan to implement a smarter tag completion feature.

That would be great; it is difficult for me to be consistent on used tags.
Thank you

Please do add a "Common tags" feature, I hardly use tags at all because of this :(
It would make this cool app even greater and -you never know- might make me decide to go Pro ! ;-)
