It's non-intutitve for new users.

"How do I find a photoshop app?"

"use the aspects system"

"What the hell is an aspect?"

It is a nice name, a rather acadmeically correct name, possibly, but
both aspects, and, I suspect, tags, are a little
non-intutitve. there's so much that you can do with the word tag,
after all.

Categories is a bit bland. How about calling the system a Catalogue,
or an Index, and then having entries?

Moof - this is an equivalent of a library catalogue by subject after
all...
