Type: New feature (needs investigation)

In the collection view, add a separate filter that shows all tags the games have as a word cloud. The user can pick one or more words and the collection narrows to the games carrying those tags.

Requirements

Word cloud of every tag across the games in the collection.
Selecting words returns the games with those words.
Must be a separate filter from the existing collection filters.

Open questions (investigation needed)

Where do tags come from today (BGG categories/mechanics, user tags, both)? Is the data already stored per game?
Multi-select semantics: match any selected tag (OR) or all of them (AND)?
Word sizing: by how many games have the tag, or uniform?
Behaviour with large tag counts (cap, search within the cloud, collapse).
Does the cloud update to reflect the other active filters?
Frontend: custom layout vs. a library; mobile layout.
