I have now removed the speed-penalty on this syntax.
So if, during a tag search, you use property-like expressions
for TODO, LEVEL, or CATEGORY, there will be no speed penalty
involved.  If you access any other properties, there will be
a one-time penalty.  Once you have paid that penalty for a
single property, it is cheap to test additional properties
(unless inheritance is involved).

I have also improved the documentation related to this.
