On the tags note, I spoke with mk a bit about them. I'm with you Kleinb, in that I believe they are a kind of apendage. I don't view them as quite the cancerous extra limb that you do, but more like...I dunno..an extra toe on your left foot.
mk is very mindful and resistant to, as Jeff Atwood put it, 'building a truck', and speaking to your point about vision "And so long as he has one, I'm willing to pay out some rope.", I can say that mk has a vision and though behind tags that provide him with the reason they are there. I'm of the opinion that they will either remain or leave one day by virtue of how well they serve a purpose whose utility is dictated by thoughtful vision. It certainly won't be because too many people are making too much noise about it :)
