This may be off-topic, but I miss having mutually exclusive labels as an alternative or complement to tags. It used to come in handy when putting files through multi-step manual processing, or any other use case where I want to be sure a file can have only zero or one status. I'm tempted to remove the colors from all my existing tags and comb through the code you've posted to see if I can rebuild a distinct labeling function separate from tagging.

To be fair, the problems are largely related to the changes involved in implementing tags. I mean, it's good that the Finder treats tags and labels identically, but it would be quite wrong for mdfind or even tag to ignore what you ask for and look for something more in the Spotlight data.

There's really no such thing as translating. It's all a scam. We basically just make stuff up and try to make it sound plausible.
