I really, really, really would love to see this feature. Ideally, I would like to have no folders in my Personal Bookmarks. Instead, whenever I create a bookmark, I just add it to the root level of personal bookmarks and add a few tags to it that classify it according to whatever system I desire (so as I add tags they get remembered and form into a list that is used to autocomplete as I'm adding them).
Then I would like to be able to create smart collections for the tags that would filter based on rules that I defined and use that along with the already excellent search bar (which, may I say, is
amazing and one of the main features that I missed in Safari; not being able to search bookmarks sucks) to find and organize tags. There would probably need to be regular drag-and-drop populated collections as well. Essentially what I would love to see would be an iTunes-derived playlist/library organization scheme based off of tag metadata.
Another possibility for tagging would be to have OmniWeb optionally troll through the pages bookmarked looking for header keyword data to help users tag old bookmarks (with the user ultimately deciding which, if any, of the keywords they wanted to use).
In any case, I think that tags and smart collections would be an incredibly powerful organizational tool for keeping track of bookmarks, and given the growing trend in tag-style metadata-centric organization would probably put OmniWeb significantly ahead of the browser curve when it comes to managing bookmarks.
