Users place the tags directly onto the image; the
effect is similar to
a HTML image map. They click on a person in the picture, and enter the
name of the person as the tag, and the coordinates are stored. Then
users viewing the photo roll over the tag and see a frame appear over
the image at the coordinates specified.

Rather later than I'd hoped, but this is now finally in SVN. It could
be useful for Commons.
