The issue is that CC has max depth == 1. Going from 1 to "more than one" requires an almost complete redesign of the category tables and the queries that use them.

@chaley - when designing the hierarchical tags feature, did you consider offering the option of using a controlled vocabulary.

Speaking for myself I would rather design and maintain (or acquire) a discrete CV, rather than creating and destroying tags in the processing of assigning them to a book.

I like and use Hindsight's Metamachine for images. Of some note is that it does synonyms - e.g. spaceman, astronaut, cosmonaut.

Image management seems to be lightrooms ahead of books in this regard
