Can you please elaborate on how tags are working within search or are they ignored by search, it looks like if I put a tag term in search nothing is returned, is that deliberate or a bug?

Same if I use a # in front of the term, most folks are used to using a # in front of a tag & I notice that its isnt ness here (I like that) but its not very intuitive for folks that are used to # in front of every tag.

Many people use facebook and twitter and the behavior there is to use a # then it is not something that really shows up on the post, just the tag shows.... as you can see from this post the # is part of the tag itself.

Im wondering if the # needs to be filtered out within the tagging system, so regardless of how someone posts the tag, either with or without a # the tagging system reacts the same.

People are used to putting # then the word and a space to create a tag and not hitting enter, can both functions be accommodated? Personally I prefer hitting enter as you have it set up, but for people used to a # then a space it can be confusing and not intuitive. Is it possible for both to work?

My concern also is clicking on #dog as a tag will return different results than if someone uses dog as a tag and just hits enter
(hashtag)dog and dog should both return all the tags with the word dog... hope Im being clear... can you please explain how that works?
