I think that about tags sometimes too, and then I remember Complex Tagging:
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/ch04s06.html#svn-ch-4-sect-6.2

The Subversion Team seems to use it in part for release tagging. For
instance run

svn log http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/tags/1.3.0 --stop-on-copy -v

... and notice when the tag was created a file was also modified.

Pretty cool feature.
