Remove this.

I've never liked either the negative or positive categorization of
tests. I don't see the point.

Bad tag. Regression for what? Regressions are fixed over time, so this
tag is a perfect example of something that just adds technical debt to
the project.

Remove this.

Slow when? Slow now? Slow at some point in the past? Always be slow?
This is just technical debt.

WAY too many things are tagged with smoke. All smoke tags should be
removed, IMO, and the scenario tests should be considered the
"acceptance" or "promotion" or "smoke" tests.

It would be great IMO if we could have separate decorators for @bug,
@gate, and @type and limited the tags accordingly.
