[Managing] Multi-term tags ?

[mhf]

This is not a big deal but I was wondering if it were possible to introduce multi-term tags :
for example, I might want to create a tag called my new tag but at present that creates three tags = my, new and tag. This is fair enough when you want to have three separate tags pointing to the same note but sometimes I would like to have a more descriptive tag (I know you can use my_new_tag as a work-around).
Of course this would mess up being able to add separate tags to notes but there might be a way via options ?

Anyway thanks again for a fantastic application !

Thanks for the suggestion!
But some explanation is due here.
When I was designing the tag system, I had three options:
1) Allow spaces inside of tags, and use some symbol like comma as tag separator;
2) Use space as tag separator and resort to underscore or hyphen for multi-word tags: my_tag or my-tag;
3) Use space as tag separator and demand to quote tags that have space inside: "my tag".

After considering all pros and cons, I decided to go for option 2 as
- simple to understand and use - any usual tag separator will work (will be autoconverted to space);
- fast and convenient for entering many tags;
- non limiting functionally, only a bit esthetically;
- easy to implement.

As they say, any UI design problem can be solved via introducing an option, except of the problem of having too many options .
I've made my choice And sorry but I'm not going to review it unless I have loads of feedback stating that the tag system needs redesign
(a poll could do it, so go ahead).
Hope this helps!

Thanks Alex,
the tag system certainly doesn't need redesigning, I quite understand - I'll just go_on_with_hyphens !

Great that you understand that rationale behind this design Please don't hesitate to make more suggestions

And by the way, if you really really want spaces in tags, you can still have them..
But with a little twist:
you can use the "hard space" (Alt + 0160 on the numeric keypad) to enter this symbol.
It looks just like space, but has a different code, so it won't be treated as tag separator.

Not very convenient, I know. But still)

Thanks again Alex - that's perfect !
