I use the Tag properties in async network code. So I know when a call ends to which event it belongs.
See here for an example: http://www.domotiga.nl/browser/trunk/DomotiGa/Ping.module#L67 http://www.domotiga.nl/browser/trunk/DomotiGa/Ping.module#L98 Not all objects have a Tag property, for example Timers don't have it.
