bq. Is putting tags after value a good idea?
Oops, So you mean that tags needs to be part of the KV comparisions itself. Was
thinking that would be a major change. So we need to sort KVs based on tags
also?

I would strongly caution against this. Tags will be _arbitrary_ metadata and
won't have anything to do with locating the value itself.
On the other hand, some use cases may want it, see
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6222?focusedCommentId=13396190&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-13396190
I don't have a good answer for resolving this conflict.
We may just want to live with the constraints imposed by not having tags be
part of the key. This would significantly simplify implementation.
