erm, "_untagged_" should be the right english spelling.
And "None" or "(None)" would probably The Pythonic Way.

If the poller_tag is not set so far, can't it be left with a test:
dict.get('poller_tag','_untagged_') in poller_tags

All hosts with shinken daemons on the internet, but only two of them 
(monsrv,poolsrv) with a second network card connected to private 
networks "mon" and "pool". 

So the poller on monsrv and poolsrv needs the tag "mon" and "pool", as
they are the only ones which can test hosts to their private networks,
but those two pollers should get also all standard internet test stuff 
(untagged) too.

Is that clear enough ?
