IIRC, the introductory text for the snippets states that this is just an
excerpt of topics. But I don't think that we have a "full list"
anywhere, so that's somewhat pointless.
However, there are a _lot_ more tags in the snippet repository (see below).
One upshot of this is that tagging a snippet with the "wrong" tags will
prevent it appearing in the docs automatically. Should we update the list
above to be the same as the one below?
ancient-notation
automatic-notation
breaks
chords
connecting-notes
contemporary-notation
contexts-and-engravers
devel
editorial-annotations
expressive-marks
fretted-strings
headword
keyboards
midi
paper-and-layout
percussion
pitches
preparing-parts
really-cool
really-simple
real-music
repeats
rhythms
scheme-language
simultaneous-notes
spacing
specific-notation
staff-notation
stylesheet
symbols-and-glyphs
syntax-and-expressions

I think that's excessive for the sort of unfolded table-of-contents
structure that we have integrated that with.
At the current point it is already hard to find anything in that mess.
Blowing it up by a factor of 2 will not help. We probably need to find
a somewhat more hierarchical structure for navigational purposes.
I agree that is excessive.
However, much like @cindex entries; you ask 3 people what a good entry
would be and you'll get 4 different answers (it's an exercise in
guessing someone else's thought process - you'll be on a
hiding-to-nothing). Whatever 'one' does someone will complain or grumble :)
Things like
really-cool
really-simple
real-music
are not that helpful.
I don't have a real solution other than agreeing on what David said by
making it Hierarchical, so you would have perhaps a minimum of three
tags where thr first three are required.
[type of music] / [type of notation] / [type of tweak] sort of thing (I
am probably not articulating it that well, sorry).
So
Ancient-Music / noteheads / overrides
Vocal-Music / lyrics / overrides / spacing
Fretted-Music / markups / visibility
Or something like that.
Just my 1p's worth.
