Wow, I've answered the rest of the messages before reading this, as Tags is my main interest...

Tag navigation is currently implemented with 'Views' on HOME. This must be done by installing a schema-file and settings some value defined in the schema. This must be prepared on a PC and installed on the DR, so this is not very user-friendly. The position on HOME (and if displayed at all) can be modified on the DR, they way that must be done is also not very user friendly right now.
There is currently no 'View' that allows to navigate tag based, all views are static, for one single tag only.

Uhmmm... have I mentioned before I need to look at your patches?

It would also show the other tags that this new set of documents also has. I.e. if we would select the 'mustread'-tag and there is a document that has both a 'mustread'- and a 'fav'-tag there would be a 'folder' named 'fav' to limit the selection further.
This would only allow to implement an 'and'-view. What are your ideas on how a tag-view should look like? Which functionality would you like it to have, i.e. complex selection of tags or only simple and of tags to limit the seletion.

Take a look at message #86. I think we share the same design.
Maybe in the first level (no tags selected) we have not to show any files, as it would be quite slow if there are many books on the ereader.

Again, you are reading my mind, the INBOX Manager would add/edit those fields.
