Are Smart Folders supported in 1Password 8 yet?
I've avoided upgrading to 1Password 8 so far, due to Smart Folders not being supported, which I make extensive use of in 1Password7. I can see various posts re Smart Folders in the forums here, but d...

Hi 1P_Dave.
Thanks so much for your prompt reply. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed that they still haven't been implemented, and I'm guessing at this stage, it's unlikely that they ever will.
While tags are useful, they're nowhere near as flexible as Smart Folders. Smart Folders allow you to create selections based on multiple tags, which is so much more useful than simply viewing the contents of one tag at a time.
While I can see the value of collections, having to constantly switch between collections to use my own personal/business logins, and a separate collection for Client logins, would be annoying as hell. Again, Smart Folders just made 1PW so much more useful.
I already use 'Favourites' but unless I'm mistaken, you can only add an individual login/item to your Favourites. You can't add a tag to your Favourites.
Is there any way to 'favourite' certain tags so that they stand out from all the other tags? I already use Tags extensively, so having to scroll through a long list of tags just to find my most commonly used ones, like Client logins for example, is going to be a pain in the ass. The ability to either Group tags or mark certain ones with a star, or 'favourite' them so that they appear at the top of the list or in a different section, would go a long way to making them more useful. I don't particular want to have to start naming tags like "01 Client Website Logins", "02 Client Database logins", just so that they float to the top of the Tags list so that I can find them easier. That just seems like a real hacky workaround.
Thanks,
Anthony.
