Under discussion

 * Daniel: T124752
 * Let’s turn the “Changes Tags” refactoring proposed by Cenarium into an RFC and get it unstuck. Chain of patches starts at https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/201905/64; The patch refers to T91535 but the topic is broader than that, and the ticket doesn’t fully describe the proposed solution. Needs work.

 * Roan: T108655 still need to split it so discussion can take place on part 2
