This is the single biggest point of friction stopping me from using Tana regularly at this point. The beauty of Roam is that it there is no resistance on my part to jotting down thoughts in a Daily Note and figuring out exactly what they are later. This works because I can highlight some word or add some tags (both just pages in Roam) and then indent and take a bunch of notes and know that I can always find them later, as the indentation itself serves as a very simple relationship.
The complexity (and enormous power) that Tana adds to this is that you can define particular entity types and fields, and use those as the means of searching and organizing. The biggest question in my mind is how to embrace that power without losing the ability to quickly capture things that are not yet defined. I think this suggestion goes a long way towards that end, but I'm sure that it's also just part of the larger question.
I don't have a specific feature suggestion for this, but ideally the best workflow would be able to quickly capture relationships in the way you can with Roam (without needing to specify entity types or fill in fields), and then have a way to iteratively define those relationships over time. Maybe a way to see when a reference doesn't have a supertag and easily add it without leaving the referencing node? I may add this as a separate feature request at some point, but I'm capturing it here for now as it's all related to the same problem.
