We do that and it works fine. However, as your applications grow and become more complex, it's tough to make sure that a change to one of the core tags doesn't kill some obscure part of another site that also uses the tag (like it did to me yesterday).
Make sure you document well, and communicate all changes to the core tag to all developers so that they know what to look out for.
