This is the problem. I'm not sure about other hardware/distros, but on the
Raspberry Pi you get exactly the same sequence of PIDs :(
When Rosegarden starts up it always creates a directory in /tmp so how about
putting the tag there? On a fresh start it will always be cleared no matter how
Rosegarden was stopped. e.g.
Project is:
/home/me/myprojects/rosegarden/awesomesong
Tag is:
/tmp/rosegarden/home/me/myprojects/rosegarden/awesomesong/lock
Notice, as it's already somewhat hidden it no longer needs to be a dot file or
have any special characters.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
