I wanted to explore the possibility of porting RoboDanny's tag command.

Is there any particular functionality that we need from tags that we don't currently have?

Does the tag ownership model work fine as it is? Tags seem to be owned by individuals, so they're only editable by their creators or staff (?), but we collectively use them in moderation and assisting. Would it make sense to have a pool of server tags and do away with ownership completely?

An option might be to enable the creation of multiple tag pools that are collectively controlled by a particular role. For example, tags popular in the beginner-questions channel, like yellowbook and devessentials might belong to the help pool, which can be added to and edited by Associates and higher. There might also be a tag pool called modtools with read access restricted to Operators and higher, and so on.
