I myself don't think it would hurt but I don't think that would be that
that productive IMHO. The tags assist people in finding things or on
plugin/theme cases helps the author or interested people find the topics
they can assist in.
If you've time (now that's a loaded question! ;) ) can you take a look at
the no replies link?
https://wordpress.org/support/view/no-replies
If you see a topic that you want to take a try at then that's a great place
to help and you may help someone out of a hole they're in.
If you have a test installation and some time then some of those plugin
topics can help you learn about filters and actions (one of my favorite
WordPress features) _and_ resolve some of those plugin topics.

I'm not aware of such a list but https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ may have
something there like that. I don't spend enough time in any Trac myself...
