I pull out this information from the Wiki and bring it into Taginfo. At the
moment nothing is done with it, its just displayed. But I do want to pull
comparable information from editor config files etc. I could also pull this
from your config, once it exists. Then Taginfo can show how different
applications handle different tags and it should be possible to answer
questions like: Which tags does application x use? Why does tag y not work in
application z? At least a bit more easily than this is now. Unfortunately
its quite a bit of work to dig through all those config files and make sense
of them, so Taginfo is not doing all of that yet.
