Why don't they work well?  Put multiple values in the tag separated by 
semicolons - what's wrong with that?  I understand that currently you 
can't search on a single value within that tag, but that is a (fixable) 
API problem and doesn't require this extra complexity.

Don't get me wrong - I do agree that in the end this stuff wants to go 
into relations, but I think doing it now is going to be a bad idea because 
the tools haven't yet made this easy and intuitive.
