From a technical perspective, I wonder what distinguishes edit groups from tags? We already have an API function to create tags (managetags <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/API:Managetags>, guarded by the managechangetags right), API functions to view edits / log actions with a certain tag, and a `tags` parameter on most actions that create new revisions or log entries (not yet complete, see T155109 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T155109>). Conceptually, edit groups are much more fine-grained than tags: all QuickStatements edits are tagged with the same tag for the one OAuth consumer, but we want to split them into thousands of edit groups. And having thousands of tags, one per edit group, would make Special:Tags rather unwieldy. But I still think we could base much of this on the existing tags architecture. One option might be to introduce a concept of “sub-tags”, where you’re only allowed to add the tag `ACDC/group1234` to edits when the tag `ACDC` is already being added. (For OAuth consumer tags, that would mean the sub-tag / edit group would be guarded by the usual protection for `OAuth CID: *` tags, which can’t be applied manually but are automatically added by Extension:OAuth.)
