Just one (possibly stupid) question:

If devel::arch:xyz is included, shouldn't langdevel become devel::lang:xyz as
well, or does it enlarge devel to much? Right now, there are 22 tags in devel,
and 18 languages.

Another, unrelated question:
What about internationalization of tag descriptions? Are there any plans how to
integrate them?
