[KinoSearch] tag searching and intersections?

[Graham Stead]

With the caveat that I use Lucene instead of KinoSearch, I would implement
tags as a list of words in a document field dedicated to tags. Imagine a
fields "tags" with 'mobile', 'lg', and 'chocolate'. This is not a
multivalued field, just a normal field with several tokens.

Searches are then easy: if the user wants 'chocolate', your code runs the
query tags:chocolate. To get docs with lg and chocolate, set the default
operator to AND and query tags:lg tags:chocolate. To get docs with lg or
chocolate, use OR.

Hope this helps,
