Can you automatically apply a Firewall to a Linode if they have the same tag?

Almost every other cloud provider automatically applies a Firewall to a Compute Instance if they have the same tag… but this is not working in Linode?

Someone had asked a similar question a few months ago and seems to have been able to get this working using the Linode CLI, scripting, and cron jobs:

When writing your script, it sounds like you would specifically want to leverage the API to check for Linode tags to selectively apply the firewall.

Otherwise, I have submitted this request to our internal "Feature Request" system so that we can track its popularity.
