Tagging is a better organisational paradigm than hierarchical folders alone - most people recognise that now. This extension provides that for TB, and as such is useful.

The disadvantage of tagging is that, in its present incarnations, it's a bit laborious, having to manually apply the tags all the time. Automation is the key. Thus, this extension desperately needs the ability to use the existing filter system to automatically tag incoming emails. E.g. for all email from fellow employee "JohnG", perform the action --> tag with: "john.g" "primatech.paper" and thunderbird's "to do" flag. I could then add a couple of additional subject-matter tags and then archive it in half the time.

Still, good so far.
