Categorize from steam tags. #28

Would be great to be able to sort with certain steam tags instead of genre.

Maybe. There would be some challenges involved, since the tags are a lot more 
freeform than the genres and change a lot more often. It's easy to describe 
such a feature in vague terms, but harder when you try to describe EXACTLY how 
it would work.

That is rather vague. I was thinking if it where possible to grab a snapshot of 
the tags and then fill a category with all games that contain a certain tag. 
I.e. the tag coop. This would not be a 100% accurate end all solution for 
sorting. It would help take the majority of games from a large library and get 
them into categories leave a smaller amount to manually sort for something more 
specific and say just action or rpg from the genre.  Thanks for considering.

Also since there are probably thousands of tags it could perhaps search for and 
flag the games base on a tag match. This would keep the database free of tag 
garbage and bloat since we are only interested in 1 tag at the time of query 
and will no longer need that information when sorted based on the searched for 
tag.
