Implement Hashtags for searching and potentially interoperable with TB Tags
1) As a user, I would like to search on hashtags that exist in included markdown documents or that I might add to Brain notes. Currently special characters like # are stripped out of search
2) As a user, I would like hashtags to work interoperable with Tags. Any found hashtags would show up in the Tags menu. This would greatly increase interoperability with other markdown tools

Hashtag entry in ThoughtNotes, search, and view, backlinks etc. Note: july2026 Evernote added this functionality in notes adding hashtag at the line level. Makes searching, collating and ‘linking’ thoughts and ideas much easier. Please have something similarly in TheBrain. Would be good for example being able to search for tasks by hashtag (multiple hashtags such as #p1 and #email and #peter ). No brainer!
