Hi, I use inlinetasks with tags extensively in my library for coding qualitative research data (https://gitlab.com/andersjohansson/orgqda/).
With the new org-element caching functionality (which hopefully can provide substantial speedups for my case, thanks Ihor!) I have stumbled on a difference in how inlinetasks are handled by org-scan-tags. Without cache, inlinetasks are matched, but with cache they are not. A minimal test file: #+BEGIN_ORG * Test heading :testtag: Contents * Another heading *************** An inlinetask :testtag: #+END_ORG Executing this code in this file #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp (let ((org-element-use-cache nil)) (org-scan-tags (lambda () (buffer-substring-no-properties (point-at-bol) (point-at-eol))) (cdr (org-make-tags-matcher "testtag")) nil)) #+END_SRC Yields: ("* Test heading :testtag:" "*************** An inlinetask :testtag:") That is, both the headline and inlinetask were matched However: #+BEGIN_SRC (let ((org-element-use-cache t)) (org-scan-tags (lambda () (buffer-substring-no-properties (point-at-bol) (point-at-eol))) (cdr (org-make-tags-matcher "testtag")) nil)) #+END_SRC Yields: ("* Test heading :testtag:") Only the headline was matched. The difference is in org-scan-tags, where the code using cache always retrieves tags for matching with org-get-tags, whereas the code without cache takes tags from group 4 of the scanning regexp ("re"). It appears that org-get-tags doesn't fetch tags for inlinetasks, is this really right? Otherwise, the small patch below gets me the right behaviour (tags returned also for inlinetasks) for these tests.
