I'm still not quite clear why keywords are seemingly a non-starter.

Krinkle seemed to be concerned with the ambiguity and edge cases of using
keywords, but those ambiguities and edge cases seem to infect every form of
categorization ever. I say we stop making perfect the enemy of the done and
just use the built-in keywords feature.

If a bug falls within multiple wiki families, tag it multiple times. If it
primarily affects a particular wiki family, tag it accordingly. If it doesn't
affect any wiki family, don't tag it all (or maybe we could have a "mediawik"
tag...).
