That particular command could not have caused any permanent damage, so
I'm not really sure what you're so worried about.
Far worse are operations which add, delete, or move, tags; but as I've
mentioned several times again recently it would be very easy to add an
additional access control for those kinds of things, at least on a
per-repository basis, in much the same way the existing cvsadmin feature
exists.
