I don't like this behaviour, this is quite complicated and unexpected
for the user. I would prefer something like this: use a keyword+':'.
Like tags:Delphine,someday This could be further augmented with other
keywords (defer:DDMMYYYY,end:DDMMYYYY, etc.). As those would be some
kind of 'commands' addressed to the parser they should be retrieved
from the string and not be part of the title.
