Well, a auto-complete would definitly be a good idea. If devs dont like it, i 
would apply the patch myself and would declare devs mad.

Ah "Chronological/Tree-View"-Tab doesnt look confusing to me, but you're right 
on this one, some devs tend to dislike free-choice in options, especially in 
KDE-related projects.

So imho the best thing would be to implement the auto-complete in the current 
Tag-Editor, and wait for the devs-answer on the chronological-view-thing.
