I am not entirely sure we want to include this facility: it may potentially be abused when better solutions exist. However, I think it is better than the solution we currently recommend https://mesonbuild.com/meson-python/how-to-guides/shared-libraries.html#shared-library-from-subproject of adding specific options to subprojects to exclude this or that parts from the installation.

Another idea I was toying with is to extend the filtering by meson install tags to allow to specify different tags per subproject. meson-python does not rely on the meson implementation of the filtering anyway, thus extending the facility is possible.
