well I guess because then its dependant on the feed to include the entire post body.  Not all feeds do that and in some cases you wouldnt want them to.  Wouldnt there be a few good use cases where you might want a headline feed (without full post body) but still have the tagging data with the item?  For this, you'd need a tag element in rss

And there lies the issue. Why not cut out the middle man? Have the RSS
reader read the RelTags directly. Less things to go wrong, fewer lines of
code to write. It's win-win. :o)
