In my opinion the tags are welcomed.

I had sort of forgotten about this until your reply, the use case I
had was only to try and force out another bug, so it slipped my mind.

Since both of us were bitten by this, and nobody has indicated it's a bad
idea otherwise, I'll rebase and send v2 with your tags to try and get
this merged.

Andrew
