Take the 2-minute tour ×  When querying any API method which
returns answers (/users/ids/answers, /answers/ids, etc.) the
result does not include the tag information for the related
question.  The API does not support filtering answers by tag,
but querying for a user's answers is a relatively inexpensive
operation for all but the most prolific users. These can
subsequently be filtered/sorted without need for additional API
calls if the tag data were included for each answer result.  I
feel this would add great value to the data without needing to
pull all the questions.  share|improve this question no one else
thinks this would be of value? interesting.... –  Sky Sanders

bad they didn't care to share the reason. i would be interested
in knowing this. –  Sky Sanders Sep 23 '10 at 15:11  1 Answer 1
Hmmm... this is an interesting problem.  Just going off of usage
statistics, nearly everybody is grabbing answers as part of
/questions/{id} or /question
