SVN Usage - working on both tag and trunk

Hello, first of all if I'm infringing any rule on the mailing list I'm
really sorry. I've tryied searching but couldn't find a good phrase to
describe my problem.

I'm pretty new to svn and version control so this question may be very
elementary:

In our company we use SVN to manage the source code of our Delphi
applications, generally we use trunks tomake changes to the source code and
we only generate tags when we need to deploy the implemented features, still
bugs happen and since the software is used in critical processes (at least
for our clients they are critical.) , we need to fix bugs and deploy the
corrections quickly sometimes,

generally we need to develop both in the trunk and the tag and sometimes
that's really frustrating - mainly because some processes are huge and after
each minimal change we need to test it over and over in a dozen ways, I try
my best to use patches or to convince the deployer to make a new tag. Still
It happens more often the I wish it too, is there a way to prevent this
through SVN or its more of a company problem unrelated to svn usage? Or
maybe its just me ?

Thanks for your help in advance
