Thanks for all the suggestions,
If I sum up (in no particular order):
- tracking tasks:
pros: everyone can do it
cons: requires a lot of manual steps to classify, possible confusions
with existing hierarchy, hard to search
- tags
pros: seems to be perfect
cons: requires special perms, could lead to tons of meaningless tags
if it was open
- keywords in description
pros: flexible because non structured
cons: no special tools in phab to manage them, easy to get lost
- single tag with workboard and columns
pros: good compromise
cons: affected columns are not displayed everywhere, cannot assign to
multiple columns, requires 2 steps to classify, cannot search a specific
column
Tags remain the ideal solution imo.
I see that phabricator added a notion of subproject recently could it
help in this case?
Thanks.

I think the ideal is that a task has finite work
and is eventually
closed.
Yes, this is the reason some dislike the tracking tasks; not a problem
if you create reports for, say, 12 different classes of actionable
search problems and add a handful blockers for each.
(A contributing factor was that Phabricator's support for dependencies
between tasks is awful: hard to add, no flexibility in notifications,
no charts, no searchability. Tracking tasks were very powerful in
bugzilla, not so much in Phabricator.)
