Hi Robert,
Thanks for picking this up again. I have been with many users who are currently creating meta tags - multiple tags in one tag e.g "PDR (2014)", "PDR (2013)", etc to get around the limitation of being able to drop journals on a page using only one tag.

So, in this case they really want to use multiple tags on the journal such as "PDR, 2013, Research, Income".
And then they might want to create a page with one block showing research income for 2013 PDR.
Another block might show income for all of 2013, regardless of whether or not it is from research.

Compared with your use case above I don't think filtering out entries that have "PDR" because I didn't include it would work for the user.

However, if you added a secondary section to filter out entries by tag, then I can see the user being able to specify an AND list, but if they want to provide some exclusion criteria if they want to.

What do you think of this approach?
Cheers.
