Yes it does, at least i do see them in solang.

Got it :)

Hum. I see you can attach a description to tags,perhaps you could attach
some other data when creating the tag (meta-meta-data? :) ), which could
allow you to build a query that gave all the tags from images OR tags
created with solang... 
On tagging workflows, i've met two that i did find comfortable: 1) the
F-Spot style (list of tags, drag-n-drop between tags and files, plus
right click on file groups to add and remove tags), and 2) a simple
textbox with "smart" autocompletion, like blogger.com post tagging.
