I _like_ tags in externals because they are self-documenting. Dealing with 
externals where you have several different revision numbers is a PIA since 
you never know what version of a module is behind the revision. You always 
have look through the log for the referenced module...that's very time 
consuming. I see this as a major risk factor when working on releases.
