Most of the IaaS implementations allow VMs tagging (setting key/value pairs on VMs).
Adding tags would allow for better identification of VMs when browsing / querying IaaS.
At the moment to allow the identification of VMs on IaaS portals we prepend the run UUID to the name of the instance. This is not always enough.
The obvious candidate tag would be:
ss-origin: <URL> - this should be known to SS and Orch at provisioning time.
