This is just a quick note as I havent read all of this post, but I have use a system similar to the this is the real tag, here is a column where you can tell it, how you want it to look.
It's terrible. It's in a couple of small websites so I don't know about performance, but it's unintuitive (everyway it's been implemented), the clients always force the tech guys (mostly me these day) to do it for them and we still get special snowflake arguments. So many special snowflake arguments. (each of thise websites represents about 20 people) Based on my experiences I can't even think about it as a potential solution - because arguments I've already seen about ao3? Boom.
I'm conflicted on how I feel about ao3, I really like the ability to control how my tags look and make new ones. but making tagging structure and policies visible needs to happen, and their needs to be more caching and reasonable queries.
