It's come up a few times that having the equivalent of tags for cells would be handy metadata for a number of other use cases:
- Varying the level of detail after export (e.g., @jsvine https://github.com/jsvine mentioned this for readers)
- Execution of distinct code paths within a notebook (/cc @mackintg https://github.com/mackintg)
- Folding/unfolding sections within the notebook authoring environment
We could prototype the tagging idea here in the extension by providing a simple cell toolbar that let's the user enter a delimited list of tags for each cell. That's all this extension would do. Other extensions could then take advantage if the additional metadata in the ways listed above. If the idea grows legs, it's an enhancement proposal candidate for the notebook tool and/or document format maybe.
It could be this feature is already in the works elsewhere and I'm unaware. Opening this as a conversation starter.
