Follow-up question. Will our new dumps project be dumping the change_tag table? ;)

Various parts of Mediawiki will apply tags to specific edits in recent changes and histories.
For example, the recently introduced Visual Editor is adding Tag: VisualEditor to all of its edits.
Are such tags included in the XML dumps of Wikipedia? It will be a while before a new dump of enwiki is released, but once it is ready, I'm wondering if we can use it to track the adoption of Visual Editor by looking for such Tags in the dump file. Are the Tags included, and if so, which dump files are they contained in?
Tags are stored separately from revisions in the change_tag table, which is not dumped.
If you want to track which edits were made using the Visual Editor, I would suggest an api query, such as
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=recentchanges&rc...
