[GoogleCodeExporter]

I have made an addition so that you can see all items that are tagged
regardless of model. all you do is create a small template that a template
tag renders.

feel free to ask any questions about this

I'm not sure how much of this really belongs in the tagging application itself, 
as
it's more about working with generic relations than tags - I have similar code 
in a
few other projects which use generic relations to render items with a template 
based
on their content type.

I'm wary of pushing people down a particular path when it comes to something not
directly related to tagging - once you've retrieved your TaggedItems, it's 
really all
about using generic relations.

Even something like jellyroll [2], which is all about working with lists of
generically related objects, doesn't force you down a particular path when you 
want
to render them based on content type.

I just see it as an opportunity to broaden the scope of this great app. This is
because you can apply this patch and use it exactly as you did before. The only
change is that it will be more flexible for those who want tagging to be 
universal so
they can retrieve all items with a given tag regardless of model (this is the 
real
reason that I wrote this extension). 

I do see that the rendering could be changed so that it takes a template name 
so you
do not have to have a template for every model/content type.

It seems that issues #41 and #58 are somewhat related to this. I also would 
like at least some helper methods 
for dealing with tags across multiple models.
