"Tags" with more data attached/explanations??
I'm thinking about developing a community based site in which the main node type would basically be a page (or something similar based on CCK or custom). I'm very interested in working with the category/taxonomy system to develop a solution that would allow users to add tags to the nodes in much the same way as the category module already seems to work.
My question is basically a feeler to get me started on a path. I'd like to allow users to add an explanation to each of the tags. Can anyone think of an efficient way to do this either with existing modules, or a custom solution? I'm quite comfortable doing the custom work, but I don't want to reinvent the wheel in case someone else has done something like this before.
Help is much appreciated! Thanks

After going back and thinking about this for a little bit... and experimenting with the Taxonomy module... it's become apparent that what I really need is to develop my own tagging system...
The problem is that when you're free tagging a node, there isn't a way to include the description there. I'd also like to allow users to use the same tag as another user, but add a different description... But still be able to pull all the similar tags together similar to the way taxonomy lets you organize posts.
I'll be working on a custom solution for this unless someone comes up with some advice for how to use something that's already available.. thanks! :)
