Oh, well, I don't care too much about name clash: they're sometimes
impossible to avoid.  'tags' was used before debtags (I don't remember
by what, but it might be mentioned in [1]) and is now used by the BTS
usertags.  And then you have HTML tags.

My feeling is that if you want to be unique these days you risk ending
up with either a long name or a meaningless name.


Ciao,
