@thisisaaronland @Edent Finally, did you ever discuss machine tags x hashtags with @chrismessina ?

In particular, for machine tags inline in the text, should we use a hash character prefix, or not?

#ns:pred=val

OR

ns:pred=val

I think the second one is preferable. The first one won't match most (?) hashtag identification regexes, with the punctuation in the middle. And I think the machine tag syntax is distinct enough that it can be matched on its own.

Downside? People are used to hashtags.
