One approach, asymmetric with respect to the favourites, would be to treat an ignored tag as equivalent to X downvotes for display purposes. I'm assuming, perhaps incorrectly, that questions with a score lower than some threshold are hidden unless you go actively looking for them. This wouldn't be a true ignore, because a question with a lot of upvotes would get past the threshold, so it would more accurately be described as an "Ignore the run-of-the-mill questions in this tag" flag.
