As somebody who's hacked on cabal-install a bit (but don't have a worthwhile patch to contribute (yet?)), I can tell you that versions support a "tag" structure, at least internally, but I haven't seen a non-empty tags field and don't know how to make the tags field non-empty. For that I'd have to go source-code diving again.

We no longer use tags because they have no sane semantics. Yes, the tag is still present internally in the Version type, however I hope to eventually eliminate it entirely. Duncan
