You can add and remove tags from individual bugs, which let you find and
- manage them more easily. Creating a new tag automatically generates a saved
- search - whose name is the name of the tag - which lists bugs with this tag.
- This saved search will be displayed in the footer of pages by default, as
- all other saved searches. The main difference between tags and normal saved
- searches is that saved searches, as described in the previous section, are
- stored in the form of a list of matching criteria, while the saved search
- generated by tags is a list of bug numbers. Consequently, you can easily
- edit this list by either adding or removing tags from bugs. To enable this

+ in the QuickSearch box at the top (or bottom) of the page. To enable this
feature, you have to turn on the <quote>Enable tags for bugs</quote> user
preference, see <xref linkend="userpreferences" />. This feature is disabled
