I have updated GnomeWeb/WebPolicies and I think it is 1.0 now. I
removed the comments about content that has been updated, but
they are available through the document history.

Tags, or keywords, which in the WGO context are the same, have been in
use for many years in scientific papers and documentation systems; if
using keywords is a bad idea I think decades of use must have proven
them wrong, but they are still in use - and extending to the normal user
in the web via tags.
Keywords are just an alternative system for retreiving information, a
system which may co-exist with a hierarchical taxonomy tree. It's not an
end, but a mean to improve the way people browse and retreive
information in a highly populated site or information system.
I like this kind of tagging too, mostly because of the straight
forward linking to relevant pages. However I don't consider this
as a "must have", and I don't think this is something we should
enforce. If the (CMS) tools we choose provides such
functionality, I think we should use it, but not make it a
requirement.
