Splitting this out from #1387458: Merge answers/search with main questions display:

+1 to adding tagging to questions and at least a tagging exposed filter.

As far as taxonomy subscription, should probably look into existing notifications systems and seeing how can integrate with them.

This actually is a bit of a challange.

Most likely, the taxonomy that we want to use is the tag taxonomy added on installation (standard install); however, we can't assume that taxonomy exists, but we also don't want define it if another feature has defined it. Interesting conflict. Hm.

Opened #1397336: Developing contribable features that have items that may or may not be there on a drupal install to discuss how to handle this situation.

Would it be reasonable to create a unique taxonomy for answers and not use the default tag taxonomy?

It's reasonable, but I think it's a bad idea due to the added overhead to people's installs. Though, perhaps as a short term solution.

(I'm pinging several people trying to get opinions on that features issue. It's an interesting problem).

I have begun work on a separate module to add this functionality. Please see Answers Taxonomy.
