@ -270,32 +270,35 @@ to a bug. There are two differences between normal tags and user tags:
1) Anyone can define any valid usertag they like. In contrast, only a
limited, predefined set of normal tags are available (see above).
2) A usertag is associated with a specific email address.
2) A usertag is associated with a specific user. This is normally
an email address (with an "@" sign and least 4 characters after the "@"),
but on debbugs.gnu.org, the definition is less strict - anything with
5 or more alphanumeric characters will work. For personal tags,
using an email address is still recommended. Please only use the
"emacs" user, or other short users, for "official" tags.
You set usertags in the same way as tags, by talking to the control
server. One difference is that you can also specify the associated
email address. If you don't explicitly specify an address, then it
will use the one from which you send the control message. The address
must have the form of an email address (with an "@" sign and least 4
characters after the "@").

*** Setting usertags
a) In a control message:
user bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org
user emacs # or email@example.com
usertags 1234 any-tag-you-like
This will add a usertag "any-tag-you-like" to bug 1234. The tag will
be associated with the address "bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org". If you omit
the first line, the tag will be associated with your email address.
be associated with the user "emacs". If you omit the first line,
the tag will be associated with your email address.
The syntax of the usertags command is the same as that of tags (eg wrt
the optional [=+-] argument).
b) In an initial submission, in the pseudo-header:
User: bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org
User: emacs
Usertags: a-new-tag
Again, the "User" is optional.

This works just like a normal tags search, but with the addition of a
"users" field. Eg:

Eg when bad replies create a bunch of new bugs for the same report.
