  This is necessary. As it is, I'm using a totally separate plot-line JUST to title them with the POV character so I'm reminded in each chapter and so I can see when doing plot overview where the POV shifts are.

  I agree with you, Tori. I think this is very necessary for a good novel.

  Another writer software I've used is yWriter and this is a feature it has. It's very handy when you want to see where you characters are at. They also do this with location and tools (like weapons I suppose).

  As I see it, there are two features here. Tagging characters to a scene and being able to identify the POV. Both are critical, and creating a plotline for POV is a hassle. As Tracy pointed out, being able to associate locations with a scene is also extremely important. Again I've tried to do this in the plotline feature but it's not the optimal solution

  This would be such a great tool for editing and revisions!

  Agreeing with Rodney—and everyone. Tagging is an important feature to track any number of categories—character, point of view, setting, theme, status.... I am really enjoying the cleanness of Dabble, but I'm not sure I can do without tags.

  In the draft, it is great to have a link for every character name to a folder that the editor might need to look at while reading the draft of the book.

  It is a two way experience too.. while writing being able to see key characters, objects highlighted and brought into the writing experience, then when looking at the character itself, seeing how/where it is referenced.
