Improvements for categories

[spoorun]

Nextcloud has a tagging system.
'Categories' are tags, and should sync with that system.

The benefits would be:

1. Users managing different types of data (such as tasks, contacts, messages, files) would use the same sets of tags (including shared tags) to organise that data,
2. and in future be able to find that data by global searches.
3. It would make shared data management more consistent too.
4. The UI for tags would be consistent across apps (and that could be improved), and it would be more efficient - Users shouldn't need to learn endless different UIs and modes of operation to carry out the same task (using tags) within a single system (Nextcloud).

I will use this issue to collect all the improvements requested for categories:

• Integrate into Nextcloud tagging system
• Allow adding categories / tags by hashtagging in the title ([Feature Request] Hashtag tagging of new entries #42)
• Integrate into search, clicking a tag should start a search (Missing functionality for categories #47)

@raimund-schluessler any update on this enhancement?

Tasks is so good! One question, is there a way to sort by categories? Thanks!
