That would make key tags meaningful. ;--)

The question is how, in a multi-signer friendly way.

To be honest it feels like there as many opportunities for accidents by 
imposing restrictions on publishing duplicate keytags as there are by consuming 
them. Your text summarised a few of them quite nicely, Ed, without even 
considering the new opportunities for failure due to the interplay between 
systems following any new rules that might be imposed and those that don't.

Is the triggering incident not just another cautionary note that we learn from?

Why is this particular incident a sign that we need to change the protocol when 
so many others have not been?

These seem like questions that deserve convincing answers before jumping ahead 
to how a new restriction might be structured.

Let me turn the question around:

How many keytag collisions are you willing to allow & at the same time protect validators from 2023-50387?
