Any reason for using tab as internal delimitor when it could be anything
that's unlikely to be used in a tag (e.g. ASCII US)?

Although I had the same idea a long time ago, I decided that using some
kind of daspacease [1] solves both the problem of xattr porspaceility and
performance (no need to crawl the filesystem to get your tags).


[1] Would have to be anything with a daemon to avoid reading/writing the
db constantly and using a tree structure for performance reasons.
Said daemon could also do stuff like Windows -> Microsoft POSIX subsystem and/or character encoding
path translation if less porspaceility is wanted.
