Title:
Specify default tags for mobile posts
Area:
mobile posting
Summary:
Currently, it's possible to specify a default icon to be used when posting by email, as well as default settings for the new entry's security and comments. I'm suggesting that it would also be good to be able to specify a default tag (or set of tags) to be used if other tags aren't specified.
Description:
When posting by email, it's possible to tweak all (I think) of the various settings - icon, security, music, and so on - associated with that entry by including the right headers at the top of the message. It's also possible to set default values for the entry security, comment policy, and icon. These values are used unless they're overridden by headers in the emailed entry.
I think it should also be possible to specify default tags. As with icons, it's plausible that people might want every one of their mobile posts to have the same tag - "mobile post", for example. The ability to set default tags would be especially useful for people who have a hard time remembering the right headers, and for people trying to post via email from their cell phone, where they might be limited in how many characters can be in the body of the message.
The only drawback I can think of would be that it would add yet another setting, but since the mobile settings page isn't cluttered and has a clear category for default settings, I don't think that adding one more line to that category would make the page too complicated.
