--- Comment #7 from Jason Straight <j.straight-kde at straights.net> ---
I feel like KDE/Plasma is definitely missing out here. indexing and tagging is
such a powerful feature, but it's like it's barely implemented at this point.

Everything is indexed, but making use of that, and tagging, and searching, etc
is lacking.

If you want to search for tags, the url syntax in dolphin is different now and
I only stumbled across it on some site while doing a search. I found nothing
about it in any documentation anywhere, and it's very non-intuitive.

To search for files with tag=Jason, you'd enter "baloosearch:/?query=tag:jason"
in the file address bar. It's not just tag: any more.
