Why not use
the existing category system for tags, and JavaScript for

Yeah, Magnus' contraption is already usable on commons. It just hasn't had
its breakthrough yet. I find the limitation to categories to be a
hindrance. I'd prefer arbitrary Wikilinks (or even multiple language links
to Wikipedias per tag). This would dramatically increase the number of
taggable objects per image and make tagging more attractive IMO.
No technical problem there. It's just that categories provide an
easier "backlink".
Cheers,
Magnus
