This is nonsense. Adding arbitrary tags to revisions is inherently useful.

This Bugzilla installation and its various inputs are a clear demonstration of
the utility of tags and keywords and a whiteboard. Of course Bugzilla attaches
this metadata to bugs (vaguely equivalent to pages) rather than comments
(vaguely equivalent to revisions), but between this ancient bug report and its
duplicates, there's obvious interest in implementing this capability.

It also seems noteworthy that there's now a "Change tagging" component in
Bugzilla. It'd be nice if users could, uh, tag changes.

Whether to put this feature in MediaWiki core or in a MediaWiki extension is up
for debate, though.
