my problem with this is that the documentation states something very different:

>From the handbook at the location where beginners will look for it:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvsup.html

'Which version(s) of them do you want?

With CVSup, you can receive virtually any version of the sources that ever 
existed. That is possible because the cvsupd server works directly from the CVS 
repository, which contains all of the versions. You specify which one of them 
you want using the tag= and date= value fields.

Warning: Be very careful to specify any tag= fields correctly. Some tags are 
valid only for certain collections of files. If you specify an incorrect or 
misspelled tag, CVSup will delete files which you probably do not want deleted. 
In particular, use only tag=. for the ports-* collections.'

I think that this states very clearly that there are no tags.

So, after we learned that every thing I am asking is there anyway in an 
official and supported way, only the documentation has to be changed.
