Stay calm, and think about the tool :-).

Authorization can be as sophisticated as you want. So just make a
pre-commit hook that limits authorized users to two kinds of
operations in /tags: addition of directories, and removal of
directories.

(I don't feel that was terribly creative of me. I'm just trying to
think about your problem in terms of "How can Subversion do what I
need it to do?" instead of "How does Subversion differ from what I'm
accustomed to in CVS?".)
