- My [other Meta post](https://meta.codidact.com/questions/277923) n the usage of status tags pointed out a pretty big gap to me. Namely, we don't have a tag to signify that something is being actively worked on. While we currently use either [status-completed] (for things that are done developing but not yet launched) or [status-planned] to this effect, votes on the linked discussion seem to signal that [status-completed] shouldn't be used for this, and the [status-planned], to me, tag signals that something is planned for the future and isn't being worked on at the moment.
- You may ask "why don't we say [status-planned] = in progress and [status-deferred] = planned for later?" However, [status-deferred] to me signals that it has no plans to be worked on, but also isn't rejected; the idea is sort of in limbo.
Thus, I suggest we create a new tag for this purpose; something like [status-in-progress] or [status-in-development].

Add a [status-in-progress] or similar tag
