Exactly.
I'm following the FRBR discussion with interest (like Tim, I see
FRBR as limited, but like many others here, I see it as a damn
good step along the road and I wish LT implemented it), but
that's a separate issue from the issue of tagging privacy. If
tags are to be a useful sorting mechanism then I *must* have the
option of marking some of them as private.
