Description

We had 2 cases of this within 24 hours in the IUC gitter by experienced tool writers (xref #7464). Currently an exception is interpreted as `False`, so outputs will be created if an invalid filter tag is used for filtering an output. Just failing outright would probably help tool devs and possibly increase tool quality overall.
