I wonder whether such tag (or tags) could be useful at this meta, too. If yes, the discussion recently bumped by Alon Amit's and Todd Trimble's answers would certainly deserve the tag.
In each of the cases mentioned above, those tags are supposed when specific instance (rather than more general question) is discussed. (And this is also clarified in the tag-info.) Similarly as in specific-question tag-info here on meta.MO.
Although this clarification was added to the tag-excerpt by me: "Do not use if your intention is to discuss/ask about a general issue, and you merely linked some question(s) as an example." (Basically following the usage from Mathematics Meta - but I suppose the intended usage of this tag on Mathoverflow Meta was the same.)
BTW specific-question is one of the default tags which are automatically created on every new meta and cannot be removed (even if they stay empty).
