$0.02 suggestion:
see attached, would skip symlinks, i.e. not add a file resulting from following a symlink.
This would avoid "duplicate" files, makes it easier to navigate tagged objects.

Another way to look at this is as follows:
when adding files to a project, a file should not be added if it is already added
( but this would be more work than checking if the file is really a symlink )

More info:
I invoked
SE
with the option
-ssymlink
and I did
File -> File Manager -> New File List
and I see this
( actual files have non-zero file size,
symlinks
have
zero
file size )
:

Background:
my project has many directories each containing many files and many
symlinks
to other files and directories located in other directories in the same project... this makes the tagging difficult to navigate since each symbol shows up in N instances.
