Multiple prefixes for different tag types

[pauljacobson]

I love this package. I've been using as the basis for my Markdown-based task management system. Would it be possible to designate more than one tag prefix for different purposes.

At the moment using @ highlights the tag (which is great). I'd like to be able to use other prefixes such as # and/or + to designate different types of tags.

The reason for my request/suggestion is that the @ prefix is often used to designate a context in productivity systems such as GTD. I've been playing around with + as a project prefix like so:

- [ ]  3. Help friends out +friends

Of course, the way I use it, that project name, +friends, isn't highlighted. What I'd love to be able to do is give it the colour highlighting and other functionality you have with tags prefixed with @.

The + could just as easily be # (perhaps a field to customise that?). The idea is to have these tag prefixes that can help users better organise their tasks.

I'm happy to fork your code and play around with it myself but I am still pretty new at this stuff so I'm not even sure where the code that does this is located. :-P

Thanks for the idea! The @(...) is pretty tightly coupled to the current functionality, but i imagine a system similar to how it dynamically defines the task prefix could be used.
