I used this feature a lot last quarter to track and organize a variety of phab tasks that were "interesting" from my point of view as the Platform Product Manager. I picked names for various colors (red=Urgent, green=Platform Dependencies, purple=Future, checkered=Logging) and made saved searches with these names in the flags tool. I have shortcuts to the saved searches on my dashboard (<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/dashboard/view/5/>). One goofy thing with flags is that in their search view you don't see status changes for the tasks (titles don't cross out when resolved) so you have to click through and look at the tasks occasionally.
