I'm using Evernote 3.0.5 for Mac Lion, and I think it would be great if when I clicked the tags drop down in the favorites bar, it only showed me tags that were assigned to the items in the notebook or stack I start in.
As it is now, all my tags are listed and when I click one it takes me to 'All Notebooks' and lists all items with that tag. I get the benefit of doing it that way, but it's not how I first assumed it would work. Also, it's redundant since I've got my full tags list on the left-hand side.
What feels natural to me, is if I click on my 'Lists' notebook and then click on the tag drop down - that I'll only see the tags associated with my lists. So I can then choose the 'books' tag from a list of 10 or so, instead of 40+.
Even better would be if I could then narrow the results again again by clicking the drop down and only seeing tags associated with books - e.g. 'to read'.
I think the reason I expected this is because I was using Yojimbo before Evernote, and it was super easy to click tags for multiple filtering. Not that Yojimbo comes anywhere close to the functionality of Evernote - hence the switch.
