In any case, let me ask a basic sort of question about user interaction.  Suppose I'm a user, painting with a set of brushes. I decide that I want to use a certain grunge brush.  (Let's say I have a specific brush in mind, but all I remember about its tags is that it is  a grunge brush from a set I imported last week.)  What are the steps I have to take, as a user, in order to find the new brush and start using it, without losing access to the other brushes I am currently using?  (I'm willing to assume that if I load everything with the "grunge" tag, I will be able to find the brush I want in there.)

Of couse, this will have to be refined by the UI team. But I have two ideas for it: one would be abel to type in tags into a dialgo shwing brushes without lossing the ones already selected. Like, just typing more tags on the tag text entry widget, and having tehn combiend as "or". The other one, is to allow the user to pop up another brushes dialog, in which he perfomes hs searches, He then can either select brushes from this ne dialog, or drag brushes from there to the first one, where they are transparently added to the group tag in use on the first window.
