[Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - Deprecated embassy=embassy

[Yves]

I do understand that a 'request for comment' is a good way to start a discussion. Also a 'vote' is a good way to check if consensus exists.

I don't understand why mechanical edit is even mentioned here?! If even a consensus is found, there's a lot to do with data consumers and editors, and eventually mechanical edit is maybe an option.
We should let the discussion live. 
Regards,
Yves
