I agree that it is hard to work with the Debbugs archive.  What you are
asking seems possible with Debbugs but the GNU instance is not
supporting many tags [1].  Using the ’Subject:’ line as tagging system
could be a workaround but I am not convinced the ratio effort /
usefulness is worth because it is too error-prone, IMHO.

Arun has presented nice ideas about improving Mumi and it appears to me
the direction to go.
