Right now, tags are allowed to be in UTF-8, which would allow for foreign language tags. This could make conversion to pseudo ItemIDs difficult, especially if someone uses all Chinese characters or something. Also, foreign language tags would be harder to vet. So, I'm considering the idea of requiring tags to be in ASCII, which is what all ItemIDs are required to be in.
