Comment (by otto42):

 Putting tags into the categories table would be enough to make me switch
 away from Wordpress, or at least to patch it to disable all core tags
 entirely and go back to UTW.

 In short, it's a dealbreaker.

 I can understand combining link and post categories. That fits a big
 picture that I can see. I cannot understand combining categories and tags,
 and I will not use a system that attempts to do that.

 But categories are not tags. They should not be combined. Doing so only
 confuses the system more and makes hacking on it and explaining it
 incredibly difficult.
