Hello!
I've recently installed the great AOS Tag User BBCode Mod and it has greatly improved the forum experience for my users. Across a large forum and many discussions its a great way to call people's attention to certain posts/topics. Its a very enjoyable experience and I think it would make a great feature, if carefully implemented to handle permissions issues, tagging groups, etc. to core. I can't think of one negative to having this feature on all boards. Granted, all interested boards could simply install the mod, but that argument could be made for a great many features in core. If it was automatically included/tightly integrated new communities with not very experiences moderators can also enjoy it. What do you guys/gals think?

Re: User Tagging (Facebook style)
There is already an RFC for the ability to @mention a user in a post. With the new notifications system, this is now a possibility for eventual inclusion, whether in the core or as an extension. If you would like, you may provide input in that topic.
