Autocompleting tags for metadata (little trick)

Obsidian’s autocompletion has become essential to the way my brain works. Unfortunately, when I’m putting tags in metadata as a list, they don’t autocomplete. So, I start a new tag item on the list with a # and then select the autocompletion. (Actually, I also have a have a Keyboard Maestro shortcut that that replaces the # with - SPACE.)
