Finally, agenda filtering on tags works for me. Unfortunately, I am
not sure if it was an update, tweak or some other tinkering that fixed
it but it works beautifully. It is now one of my favourite features.
I did not expect but was pleasently surprised to find that it allowed
filtering an already filtered view. Carsten also fixed tab completion
of tags. Sweet.
Will it be possible/useful to add some kind of indication to modeline
showing that filtering is in effect and the filters applied (may be
like "(Org Agenda Day Diary Filtered: P, t)")? But I love it even
without it.
