They do not. Tags are only considered inside headlines. Trying to allow tags outside headlines will require major changes across the whole Org codebase and will still make things incompatible with third party packages, like org-ql. Not to mention the whole new concept for block syntax. If one wants to add "tags" or other keywords associated with blocks or other Org elements, the right tool to use is affiliated keywords. But note that Org search infrastructure is tailored towards searching headlines. -- Ihor Radchenko, Org mode contributor, Learn more about Org mode at https://orgmode.org/.
