Martin Michlmayr:
Martin, I'd like to get your input on this. At the moment, it's allowed to have meta data with
the key "tags", which means that the transaction can have both tags (i.e. entry.tags) and meta data called "tags" (entry.meta["tags").
Should this be allowed or rejected?
```

2014-07-12 * "Black Iron Burger" "Lunch" #foo
tags: "foo"
Expenses:Food:Restaurant 17.23 USD
Assets:Cash -17.23 USD
