I am considering using this to replace lists of thematic science
software on http://wiki.debian.org/DebianScience.
As an example, I would like to replace the first part of
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianScienceMathematics
`Mathematics tools already packaged in Debian' by some call like
http://debtags.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/index.cgi?tags=field::mathematics
(and maybe later something more refined using more debtags, like
http://debtags.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/index.cgi?words=&tags=field::mathematics&&facet-role=role::sw:utility)
Unfortunately, this URL does not yield the complete list of tagged
packages I can get by other means (adept or whatever).
Are there some restrictions on the number of answers that explain this
behavior?

I have read it. ;-)
Thanks for your work on debtags,
