I guess my issue here is that all the suggestions that would go over well with the MathSE community, like including links in the questions, feel hacky or feel like work-arounds. The mechanics of organizing such a series of questions should be built into the site, and it's irking me that there is no such mechanic. Tagging feels pretty right mechanically, but yeah, that would start to clutter things.

Like I'm getting the same feeling about this as I do about the List of Generalizations post: there's gotta be some better way of organizing things.
I have reposted the above comments from tagging chat room - they are not specifically about tagging. (And maybe somebody around here might have some comments on that.)
 
@MartinSleziak you wouldn't happen to know if there's been conversation(s) with the StackExchange Folks about improving search functionality or site organization, would you?
 
I am not sure whether there is something. (Of course, you can browse a bit about search tag or search+feature-request if you have time.)
A lot depends on what you have in mind when you talk about improving search functionality.
This is only tangentially related, but I will shamelessly add a link to my suggestion: Should we add external searches in some help pages about search?
Although at the moment Approach0 seems to be down.

@MartinSleziak I think I'll dig and search later. Gotta get off the site now or else I'll get sucked in and be here all day. :P And thank you for all your help finding links to related posts. :)

I'll just add that in situations that are rare enough, hacks and workarounds are probably tolerated. But maybe somebody else has some better ideas or knows where this was discussed.
