Find related posts by tags in common?

I just installed this hoping to be able to show related posts based on tags in common but that does not appear to be an option. Under “The Algorithm”, I did turn off matching by title, content and categories but I saw that the list of related posts for a given post would not actually be filled out with known posts that have the same tag. I took a cursory look at the plugin’s code and it appears that it actually just uses the tag words to do a search for matching words across post content.

If I’m wrong, how do I show related posts that share tags in common?

As an aside, may I suggest allowing users to specify the html elements you use (like h3, ol, etc) when using the widget so we can easily match up with other default widgets? For example, I modified YARPP_Block.php to show the widget heading with h4 and class widget-title (and disabled your style sheet) so your widget would format itself like other default widgets without messing with overriding any css styles.

Thanks.
