What I do is having tags with different colors:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
    (setq org-tag-faces
          '(("home" . (:background "#D4EAFF" :italic t))
            ("work" . (:italic t :background "#F9E816"))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Though, only the color spec above is taken into account. Tags are not in
italics like for all the others:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
     (org-tag ((t (:foreground "rgb:81/6A/7D" :background "rgb:F7/B8/DE" 
:italic t))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Maybe a bug?

Best regards,
  Seb
