AFAIK there's simply been nobody who's wanted to use it this way (or nobody
who's complained about not being able to). It's correct that the manifest
places no limit, and there is no arbitrary internal limit. Any perceived
limits so far have simply been limits of the UI/CLI. e.g. fossil's argument
processing doesn't directly handle more than once instance of the same
flag, which is something one might want/need in order to apply multiple
tags at commit-time. IMO, being able to add single tags is a "must-have,"
and being able to specify multiple tags at once is a low-prio nice-to-have.
