Well, to start with, we need to rebuild those games in question for d-i, as
they need to be in a .udeb, and rebuilt with either gtk-dfb or plain sdl only,
and all sound needs to be disabled, so saying all are already tagged is not
going to work.

We also only need a clear subset of those tags, maybe only :

  Tag: game, uitoolkit::gtk-dfb

or

  Tag: game, uitoolkit::sdl

Would this be admissible, or an impossible subversion of those Tag flags ? 

Also, what tools do you have to parse those, and what language are they
written in (we need either plain C or plain bash/sh, i think).
