- Make <mytag>, when parsed, automatically

a category programmatically like this, and will it show up in
Special:Categories?
That would be the simplest approach. An example of doing this can be
found at

- Create a new Special page that lists all pages that
use the tag, via
SQL query? (Meaning I will now have coupling between the <mytag>
extension and the Special page.)
This would require tracking such links in a custom table, similar to
the page link tables, for example. Trickier, but more
user-transparent.
