I don't think this is a problem anymore after the renamed-tags support was added. Which maps the override tag to the new name and does not even emit a tag of its own for this. I think this is the most inobtrusive way to handle any such mass rename w/o bothering maintainers about it. Perhaps it might be nice to eventually emit a pedantic tag or similar, but I don't think this should be a blocker on any mass tag naming cleanup TBH. Thanks, Guillem
