Ahh, I see. So, you basically want this:

macro index a <do-something><save-message>foo\n
macro index \;a <do-something><tag-prefix><save-message>foo\n

It's not 100% generic, because of course if you rebind ; to be something 
other than tag-prefix, then it won't work, but this should at least make 
it work the way you want (I think) with a default setup. I tested it -- 
the only difference is that when you press ; it doesn't put "tag-" into 
the lower message part, but it all works.
