In the Agenda this is necessary because entries are shown outside of their normal hierarchy. In an Org buffer, or in an exported version of it, the original hierarchy is still in place.

Maybe not. Didn't remember seeing it in the documentation, so, at first= ,
I thought it might be a bug, but it made sense after I thought about it. As to in the agenda only, I could also see this being something that
export backend might want access to (if it doen't already have access to it).=C2=A0 Other than that, it's good.

Yes, if an export backend wanted to show inherited tags at entries, = the same syntax could be used.=C2=A0 I don't know if any backend is try= ing to show inherited tags.=C2=A0

In the Agenda th= is is necessary because entries are shown outside of their normal hierarchy= .=C2=A0 In an Org buffer, or in an exported version of it, the original hie= rarchy is still in place.

Cheers
