openmeta should accept -0 similar to xargs for a NUL delimited list of paths. #9

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Try to run openmeta on several files with spaces in the path.
2. Single quote every file... and watch out if it already has a single quote.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
find / -print0 | openmeta -a tag -0 # tag all files...

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
SVN as of yesterday.

Please provide any additional information below.

I think that the only way to do spaces would then be the 'backslash space' 
combo? I have not written command 
line tools really ever before. xargs - sounds like a good idea.
