+When ikiwiki is being used for issue tracking, it would be convenient to
+have a way to close a bug from a comment, rather than editing the bug
+report page in a wiki-manner.
+
+So, some way to set a tag from a comment, such that it applies to the
+parent page.
+
+Turning on allowdirectives may make that work (I have not tried), but
+it's probably too heavyweight/intrusive/possible a security issue.
+
+Maybe extend the comment directive with a field to set/unset tags?
