This could be made much easier if Sugar apps prompted the user for
tags when shutting down an application.

I know it is a goal to require as little text as possible. And I'm not
sure what images could universally convey the message correctly... but
basically:

Would you like to tag the state of this activity? Y/N

...followed by a prompt for the user to enter tags.
