The how-to tag has no tag wiki but 37 questions covering widely different topics. I'd be inclined to associate 'how to' questions with support ("How do I use Stack Exchange feature X") but users have managed to tag discussions, feature-requests and even bugs with them.
I think how-to is a meta tag, not unlike the [best-practices] mentioned there and should be burninated. Thoughts?
Instead of burninating it I suggest asking a moderator to merge the how-to tag into the support tag with the latter being the master and leaving the former as a synonym to it.
If there are any questions for which a tag of support is unsuitable then re-tagging them prior to the merge would be appropriate.
