Comment(by F J Kaiser):

 first: thanks for discussing this.

 - i got "tags" to mark/indicate posts
 - - a "tag" describes some part of the content of a post

 - i got "categories" to group posts
 - - a "category" describes which sort of post it is

 now i got every thing i need to manage my posts. the only problem is, that
 i will always have to search through all categories or all tags.

 i understood the whole concept not in doubling categories and tags and
 sticking them together in single groups to call them "taxonomies". i
 always thought what we would get was a possibilitie to group "''tags''"
 within "''categories''". if i could use "taxonomies" as a ''link'' between
 "tags" and my posts, everything would be fine and we would´ve got a lot of
 additional possibilities to make indicating posts more effectifly and
 making searching for posts even faster and more wiki-like.

 i would see a possible sollution in splitting between "terms" and
 "taxonomies". instead of using one screen for each taxonomy, using a
 single screen to create and add "terms" to "taxonomies". (if you got 100+
 "taxonomies" i want to see your admin-menu;).

 i´d suggest to let the milestone with ''future release''.
