I tried FILETAGS for the first time and it failed to work and it
took a while until I found out why.
I assumed orgfiles are scanned dynamically for filetags, so I
don't have to do anything just write it into the file. Turned out I
had to reload the file as well, because org cached filetag info.
I suggest adding a sidenote about it to this page for new users,
so they know filetags don't work automatically as soon as they
are inserted into the file:

Any time you change one of the in-buffer settings line (e.g.,
#+FILETAGS), you need to refresh the buffer by hitting C-c C-c on the
new or updated line. You don't have to reload the file.
Here's the information in the manual:

Best,
Matt

Thanks, I haven't seen this page yet.
Maybe every mention of an in-buffer keyword should be a link to
the summary page you linked, so new users can quickly find this
info by clicking on the keyword. Just a thought.

I don't think this s possible. But in *many* places of the manual
the fact that C-c C-c must be used to update in-buffer settings
is mentioned.
