Please answer these questions before submitting your issue. Thanks!

What version of Go are you using (go version)?

go version go1.7.1 linux/amd64

Now different go cmds handle tag list in different ways:

  • go build , go test and go vet accepts space-separated tag list.
  • go tool vet accepts comma-separated tag list. go tool vet -h says:
  -tags string
        comma-separated list of build tags to apply when parsing

If these cmds handle tag list in a consistent way, it will be easier for users to use them.

This probably means we need to accept both comma and space separated lists to avoid breaking any existing callers.

go tool vet added its tag list much more recently than the others. I think we can change vet to take spaces too, but we're not going to change the go command proper to start taking commas.
