I don't think file systems will be replaced anytime soon because of psychology. The human mind remembers things best by attaching them to a real or virtual location. That's how all the memory experts do it, they construct a virtual house in their mind. Virtual rooms, shelves, boxes, and folders are no different. So if anything, I'd give the Filesystem different folder icons based on their depth to reinforce this similarity with the real world. Also, the article seems to use strawman arguments. Nobody needs to remember the exact image file extensions. You just click on the "search for images group" in windows and it'll search all image file extensions for you. In effect, tags are already there. It's just that they are automatically generated.
