If want to completely remove the tag, not only parts of it, a "svn rm"
is the best match.
It's also less effort because to can delete the tag directly in the
repository without the need for a working copy, because ...

... for a reverse merge of the tag creation you would need to do the
merge on a working copy of the parent folder of the tag.
