I think this defeats the point of the places panel, which is a globally accessible place to see things. Maybe you could benefit from Bug 356062? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #1) > Maybe you could benefit from Bug 356062? Baloo/Dolphin also works well with hierarchical tags; you can have high level tags that have tags underneath them (and so on...) Your top level tags appear in "Places". If you click on "All Tags", you get that list and you can click on a tag there and go down a level and see any subtags (together with the tagged files). The logic in planning out the tags you use is a bit like planning out your file structure, folders and subfolders. The advantage of tags is that a file can have many tags and thus appear in many "tag folders" unlike a files that lives in one place in a filesystem. If you found you were tagging too many things with types of animals, you could create a top level tag Animals and under that Mammals Reptiles Fish and under each of those, the type of animal. A tag would look like: Animals/Mammals/Elephant. It works, in general, remarkably well; you can navigate round your "tag structure" in Dolphin in a very similar way to moving round your file structure. You do need baloo to be working properly (and indexing all the folders you want to manage) but you don't need "Content indexing" unless you also want to search for embedded tags in images, music etc. Of course there are a handful of "little issues" and it's possible you could run into them. I can try to put together a summary... (In reply to tagwerk19 from comment #2) > I can try to put together a summary...
