The TagList plugin allows tags to be found using three matching methods: exact match, ignore case match, and regular expression match. The matched tags are grouped into tag classes. For instance:

<project>
  ...
  <build>
    ...
  </build>
  ...
  <reporting>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
        <artifactId>taglist-maven-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>3.1.0</version>
        <configuration>
          <tagListOptions>
            <tagClasses>
              <tagClass>
                <displayName>Todo Work</displayName>
                <tags>
                  <tag>
