4 months ago That's too general. In each app, that would work differently, so please raise the proper issue in each app with an explanation how it should work in that app and what's the reason. Especially, that in some apps there are already requests for that.
General Discussion is for features that are shared between apps. Tag logic will never be shared between the apps - it may look similar, but the logic behind will be completely different as you've even written in Additional Information.

Feature description
I would like to be able to tag inodes via File Manager, conversations and messages in Messenger, contacts and groups in Contacts, and calendar entries (events/tasks) in Calendar, in order to organize them.
Why do you want this feature?
Hierarchical directories are not adequate for complex file organization, I need to be able to tag messages as incomplete/complete like I do with my e-mails, and I need to be able to filter my calendar entries by type of event, because using multiple calendar subscriptions doesn't work when you don't have access or want fine-grained organizational capabilities.
Additional information
https://apps.kde.org/en-gb/dolphin/, a file manager, provides tags for inodes using https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Extended_attributes#File_systems. Every music manager I've ever used has provided this (albeit using file metadata) as does https://apps.kde.org/en-gb/digikam/, a photograph manager.
