May 20, 2013 at 11:24 comment added Trevor Powell @PandaPajama "Java", "3D", and "DirectX" each can be used to describe a question's subject matter. When used correctly, they identify the context of a question so that the questions can be searched for and found more easily by future visitors. Which is the whole point of tagging. My interpretation of the policy I linked to is that tagging a question with "reverse engineering" or other meta tags doesn't say anything about what the question is actually about, and so doesn't aid in filtering or improve discoverability.
May 20, 2013 at 9:18 comment added Panda Pajama Not so sure it would be a metatag. If that were true, then "Java", "3D", or "DirectX" would all be metatags when they don't work as the only tag for a question. I'm actually for a "reverse-engineering" tag, as a useful one.
