FWIW, we're not in "this is an absolute deal-breaker"
mode about this, but we were kind of hoping for a con-
sensus that is something that should be on the "is a
bug, needs to be fixed eventually" list. I mean, aft-
er all we seem to agree that it would in principle be
better to find away to avoid having to involve sysad-
min to do something as day-to-day as creating a tag.

How does the conduit to communicate our needs to the
Gitorious developers work right now? Could we put
this into that conduit?
