Comment:

 I'd be totally +1 for this, but because it still requires three joins
 (wp_term_relationships for terms related to the posts, wp_term_taxonomy to
 restrict by taxonomy, wp_terms to get the term name).

 However, there are solutions in the form of snippets and maybe even
 plugins -- that can add this functionality. So I'd say, for performance
 reasons, this should be closed. Three joins is an awful lot on a very
 large database of posts with heavy use of terms.
