Include search for no tags
I'd like to search for citations I haven't tagged yet. Especially to monitor automatic updates from watched folders.

Very important! The Development Team should give more attention to this problem.

Desperately needing this basic feature! In a large database, finding untagged papers becomes very, very tedious (a.k.a. near impossible).
There are a couple of similar feedback entries:

- http://feedback.mendeley.com/forums/4941-mendeley-feedback/suggestions/257165-sorting-files-by-tag-isn-t-possible-anymore-could
I've added my three votes here because it's the one with the most votes as of yet, but the last one in the list above is classified as "Under review". It's not clear to me if this is still the current status or if it has been abandonned. Any update from the Mendeley team, please? -

I added votes for "Include search for no tags", so I am with you guys
In the meantime, here's a workaround, albeit a little cumbersome: Make a folder called tagged and move all of your tagged stuff into there. Every time you tag something, you take an extra step of moving it into the tagged folder. Then, all your untagged stuff will be in the "Unsorted" folder.

Not having this is driving me completely insane.

This is very similar to http://feedback.mendeley.com/forums/4941-mendeley-feedback/suggestions/375346-add-a-tag-to-select-papers-without-tags
