Hey Jorge,

I think Marcus answered your question, but some additional infos:

If tags follow the TSB standard practice, all you need to do is derive
your block from tagged_stream_block. It'll provide you with convenience
functions to handle it.

The name isn't perfect, and the 'tagged stream blocks' where named such
after the 'tagged file sink' existed. Also, you can have streams that
are tagged that are not 'tagged streams' in this specific definition.
But this nomenclature just stuck, and we didn't have anything better at
the time. Names are one of the hardest thing to get right in SW dev,
after all :)
