Excuse me butting in OP.

I’d like to be able to combine tags when using the tags or search page as I believe this would open up lots of UX possibilities, not least being able to easily add [Isotope](http://isotope.metafizzy.co/v1/demos/combination-filters.html) like combination filters functionality - although within a single column so that contextual links were preserved between comments.

In saying that, I am new to Discourse so probably am not aware of all of the ramifications of the above, but I think it’s safe to say if we could be offered more granular searching and filtering, it would open up a lot more client side user configuration options ([for example)](https://meta.discourse.org/t/is-carousel-possible-in-a-post/31134/4) and take a lot of development load off of the core team.
