Please make it possible to filter on "Tags" when viewing "Internal Datasets" from the "Datahub" section.
I am referring to the "More" dropdown menu.

  Yes, that sounds like a good idea. We'll try to implement support for it.

  It turns out that datasets do not have tags. In theory the sink datasets of user pipes could inherit the tags from the user pipe, but that is not the case today. Non-user origin pipes do not have tags to today, but might have in the future.
  
  Could you please explain what the use-case this feature needs to solve?

  Example:

  If pipes are appropriately tagged one could filter on a tag to view all internal datasets for an entire integration/value chain.

  This is useful when you have a lot of intertwined systems and you need to view datasets related to a particular integration.

  Internal datasets should not be used as part of an integration/value chain. Note that you can filter by using the `Tags` filter on the `Pipes` page. Is there any reason why you cannot use that instead?

  In my case I am required to delete datasets on all pipes in a value chain when the source system have to do a "full sync".

  Being able to filter on a tag will make it possible to delete the sink dataset on all the related internal datasets in one go.

  I see. That is a very concrete use-case, thank you. We'll discuss this internally and see how to best provide a solution for it. I suspect we'd rather implement such support on the Pipes page instead.
