Hi,

Thanks for your post. As a side note, something I realized recently...

For my part, it seems to me that the search tool is a bit verbose. If for example you want to search for notes with several "tags" you have to type `tag:tag1 tag:tag2` whereas you could imagine typing `tag:tag1,tag2` like in many applications.
