Now that we have tags coming to PM in [Discourse Version 2.0](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-version-2-0/73729), is there any thought around adding the ability to restrict visible/usable tags in PMs? For example, we may use tags in group inboxes to denote status (open, in progress, waiting, completed). Right now we see all of the tags.

If I were to venture an ask for this as a feature, I would say either make this capability at the Global Level (one setting for all PMs **OR** set this at the Group Level so that different groups have their own defined tags. This would allow more meaningful workflow options and management.

This is not an ask for right away but could be a logical addition for a future release.
