Given that anyone can become a virtual youtuber themselves just like "idol" or "livestreamer", and there are no particular person that's owning the concept of virtual youtuber, I don't think it'd appropriate to make a copyright tag for it? Maybe a pool or something would be more appropriate?
Definitely not a copyright tag, but if it’s an objectively taggable concept, it can be a general tag.
You could tag post #2980156 with trait_connection.

True, the definition is a bit hard to pin down. At first I was thinking in similar vein to fate_(series) tag where one could browse all the images for all the channels at once, but...

Virtual singers (Vocaloids, Voiceroids, and UTAUloids) don't have an umbrella tag. They're simply listed in tag groups in the wiki. I think virtual youtubers should be treated the same way. These characters aren't actually related to each other, beyond being in the same "genre".
