Created June 10, 2012 16:16
Tag code cleanup sketches
# A class to filter input parameters coming from a form in rails
# and collate them into a form suitable for use with a taggable
# object.
#
# This will mutate the params hash it is given.
#
# This could be used in a controller to take input that represents
# tags under its various names and collapse them to hand to a domain
# model that only knows about tags/tag_ids. Used with a decorator
# such as https://gist.github.com/2906392 it could handle everything
