As we still have unlimited changeset comment length (#4694 was not merged), this is just asking for spammers to tag thousands of users in a single comment. I think we should enforce upper bounds on the number of users that can be tagged in a single (changeset) comment, like on Discourse. Rate limiting changeset discussions also comes to mind to reduce abuse potential of this new feature.
