manuel proposes adding a data-tag-group attribute to tags for easier styling and distinction, especially useful for setups relying solely on tags. JammyDodger suggests using it for assigning tag icons based on groups, which manuel agrees could be implemented with adjustments to existing components. ncaming215 also supports this idea, highlighting the potential to significantly reduce their tag icon settings. tobiaseigen notes that this feature was previously worked on but is currently not a priority for the team.
