    I think what you’re looking for is simply an indexer + UI that sorts your filesystem by tags rather than by directory structure. Not sure if that’s as beneficial as you imagine it to be, but IIRC KDE allows you to do something like that in Dolphin.

      No, they always have to keep a index uptodate. And no synch (or even compatibility) with other such tooling. Only thing that comes close currently is xattributes some fs support. But they are wholly a undefined blank slate.

      About advantages, no broken paths would be one.
