For sure. I can fix that quickly for you next week. Adding the tags
is definitelly possible.

I am aware of that and tried a few things to solve this. It is something
in the Gmail API handling for the KernelCI bot. We'll look into it again.

Let us know of anything else you'd need. linux-next is a foundamental
piece of the Linux kernel integration process and the KernelCI organization
 would be happy to look at other needs you have. 

In the coming months, we should bring up regression reporting for
execution issues, eg boot failures, kseltests regressions, etc. Today
we only give you the builds, but kernel boots and tests the kernel
on a huge range of hardware configurations. We are working on strategies
to clean up data, otherwise, we just add noise to you with yet another
bot reporting things.

Best,
