I guess so. I'm inclined to avoid putting in a lot of tags
which have only temporary usefulness. That might be
resolved in a couple of ways --
(1) avoid tags by never incrementing the subminor number,
(2) increment the number, put in the tags,
but remove them after the next release,
(3) increment the number, don't make a tag, use timestamps
to get files corresponding to a subminor revision number.
(4) increment the number, make a tag, just live with lots of tags.
At this point I don't have a strong preference.
(1) is/was the status quo ante, which I'm not entirely
happy about, but as you've pointed out (3) has problems.
