Well, I have committed a patch which extends `debbugs-gnu'. If you use
the special severity "tagged", you will be asked for user tags. Now you
can enter a tag like "cedet", and you will see all bugs tagged with this.

For my tests I have used the tags "msdos,www,solaris", because there is
no bug tagged with "cedet" yet :-)

This needs testing, feedback appreciated. I haven't increased debbugs'
version number yet, you must pull it from the elpa repository directly.
The package manager won't offer you the changes, because it believes you
are fine with version 0.3.

Further plans are support for the "usertag" control message, and a new
command showing you all user tags for a given user (aka package name).
