You mean tags generated by the file taggging plugin? That uses spotlight comments field which in Tiger was stored seperately. Leopard changed the metadata storage but I don't know if spotlight comments are now stored with other metadata. Nevertheless, the problem will still be for flickr to understand HFS+ metadata, and whetther it is even preserved using standard upload mechanisms. Thus the most solid way for this to work would be having a script/app before upload read all tags and convert them to photo metadata which flickr could read. There are native commands to read spotlight metadata, and you can use Exiftool to write them to XMP. So in theory it should be straightforward for the flickr uploading plugin to do this.
