This is true, but it's not worth another set of tags that no one will remember 
to use to try and get it.  

We need to stick with something very simple that is available in the U/I.

If it's a patch, tag it.  If you review it and it needs more work, untag it an 
comment.  That's simple enough we could actually do it.
