They did recently add tag matching for devices/resources, but not for instances or other elements. I find tags for devices less useful as I can already use groups for the same behavior and all times I have used tags, it has been somewhat contrived (so far). But it is valuable since it allows more abstract alert policy control without adding unnecessary groups.
If we could match tags in all alert rule sections (where applicable), then the necessary grouping could be handled via those tags. If instance groups could be actual groups rather than static macros (and if they could have properties) that could be referenced in the rules, that would also help. ILP tag references in alert rules would help (and could get rid of the need for instance groups, at least for alert management).
