What's that line from Apollo 13 again? "I don't care what it was
designed to do, I only care what it *can* do", or something? :-)
I think it very much depends on your workflow. For my work, I find
thinking of the tags as separate desktops is usually the way that I end
up using them (occasionally I display multiple tags at the same time,
but I don't think of that as being something I do regularly). I think
that's mostly, perhaps, since my aggression in cleaning up unneeded
clients has increased in recent times (although that's also helped by
limiting myself to 4 tags (dev, web, communication, hotfix)).
I'm not averse to either tags-as-tags or tags-as-desktops. Do what makes
sense for your situation. I'm not even sure what I do, since I seem to
do both.
