No, I propose demexp enforces

and the client enforces the restriction of A to tag u,
B to tag u or t: if A votes on t unexpectedly I just
dump A as my delegate.

My concern is:

1) complexity of maintaining delegation lists in the presence 
of an open set of tags

2) the choice of which tags to assign to a question
itself becomes a political issue

The argument for simplicity is clear. Point (2) however
is important: I don't want to see the voting system
*itself* being the focus of political activity,
instead of discussion of the real issues.

EG: "Subscribe to restrictions on CO2 emissions" is an issue,
should it be tagged "Finance"? It certainly has financial
implications.. but do we want to have a big argument
about how to tag the question ... or should we discuss
the actual question?

I think it would be better if the tagging were informative,
rather than having any enforcible consequences.
