Multiple Tags at Object Level

Can IBM please add the option to allow multiple Tags to be associated with Objects at an Object level not Agent level, for example MQ Queue Managers / Ace Integration Servers . This is required on a large enterprise to allow custom dashboards to easily be created as per end users requirements

Example

we could have 10000 Queue Managers in Instana and need to create specific reports for subset of Queue Managers for relevant Application Teams.

They may want anything between 2 and 30 Queue Managers, for their Dashboard. By using a common Tag associated against those Queue Managers a Query can easily be structured calling one name rather than trying to string together along complex DFQ.

In addition we need to be able to add multiple Tags to the same Object as some of the Queue Managers will be shared across different teams, they are not all dedicated to one area.

    This seems to me to be a basic requirement, a very sensible and extremely powerful suggestion, I do hope it can be implemented quickly.
    I'd expect any enterprise to want to be able to use this.
