So basically you want to be able to tag files, then restrict the listing
to the tagged files, operate on these files (tag again etc.), then reset

Did it even come to your mind that there was only one person (Janek)
over the last few years who was apparently using tree view and stepped
up to improve it? Hint: WTF this has to do with orthodoxy? Thank you so
much for such a brilliant insight!
