Alright I’ll provide a use case scenario. I wanted to this functionality when I was in uni where a lot of my contacts had more than one role to play and I had trouble remembering all the roles my contact would have. Let’s say one of my contact was my coursemate but also worked in organizing committee of an event. I knew other members of the organizing comittee as well. So in the event that I needed to share an information with the entire organizing committee, I needed to remember committee list members instead of software helping me. And what about another contact who also part of the event but was on a different team like Public Relations. You could say just another tag would suffice no need for nested ones. But this kind of events happens multiple times and I would have to create multiple tags for multiple events (instead of nesting) and it becomes cumbersome managing the list.

That's awesome. I'd like to investigate it more...

You have the following contacts:

  • coursemate
  • commiteemember1
  • commiteemember2
  • commiteemember3
  • prguy

How would you like to tag them?

Let’s say I have 4 contacts A,B,C&D

A is both a course x mate and committee member for event 1 So tags for A are /batch20xx/course_x/ /event1/OC/

B is senior of course x and also a committee member so tags for B are /batch20xy/course_x/ /event1/OC/

C is a batch mate but on a different course y and also part of committee member and tags are /batch20xx/course_y/ /event1/OC/

D is also a batch mate and course mate but is in PR So their tags are /batch20xx/course_x/ /event1/PR/

I hope this helps.
