You mean the

     3. Make pages able to embed in them a pagespec that says they
     are the template when new pages are created that match that
     pagespec. This is the most general solution, but depends on
     plugin data storage.

Yes, I could see this working, but would still need some form of way
of getting the current page name, since I can't hardwire it:

  [[map pages="link($tagbase/foo) or link($tagbase/foo/*)"]]

Sorry if this is obvious, but I am pretty much an ikiwiki newbie and
have not found a way to get at the current page name.

No, in that sense I think it makes sense only to pages matching
$tagbase/* .
