Is that possible?
The thing is that I want to have a block (appearing only on user profiles), that shows a user list of all other users that have been flagged with the same flag the current profile´s user that´s being visited is.
I thought of some alternatives, but I haven´t thought using Flag to this... could that be possible?

Thanks for your opinions!

The Flags module is probably not the best choice in your case. (Mainly because right now it can't dynamically filter by flags; something this issue could solve.)

I've read your forum post. What you want to do is relatively trivial. You can use CCK, or taxonomy, or even roles. "WorldFallz" mentioned the CCK possibility.

The only challenge is to "glue" the thing to the profile page.

I need something that can be managed from the administration of the site exclusively.

because I could add all users in one big fat step.

There are solutions for "mass editing". For CCK, there's a module that makes a tabular view editable. For taxonomy, there are several mass tagging modules.

Thanks for your reply!
I really hope that flag feature will be implemented soon. Flag is sort of "multiuse" module, that simply rocks.

I think that the big problem is to show inside each profile *only* the people that shares the same characteristics (field, taxonomy, flag, whatever) with the profile owner.

I think that Views filters are added to flags now...?
Could this be possible with flags? Right now I´m dealing with the creation of a profile tab that shows all users flagged the same as the current profile user...

The Views filters are still unchanged, even here over a year later. I think it makes more sense to merge this request with #371432: Exposing the flaggings table: Alternative Views support. I suggest following/updating that issue with any concerns you want to make sure are accommodated for.
