I agree. There is a lot I love about SVN over CVS (and VSS) but sometimes I just want simple tags. It is true that subversion's system can do everything tags can (and then some), but it's more cumbersome to use. I don't want to have to know the structure of the repository (/tags, /release, /trunk, etc, etc) just to snap a symbolic name on a revision to help my memory down the road.
