If tag is 'staff, this below will give structure out:

(org-scan-tags 'agenda '(staff lambda (todo tags-list level) (progn
(setq org-cached-props nil) (or (and (member staff tags-list)))))
org--matcher-tags-todo-only)

Now `org-scan-tags` could be inspected if it constructs some lists,
alist, that are somewhat nicer than such output.

But that output can be converted to HELM completion.
