A possible problem with this would be whether much maintainers would be concerned enough to spend their time on this. By spending time thinking up with tags you give to a package, you lose some time working on a bug. Adding some quick tags one can think of does "something" when you're busy; but I'm not sure if limited time would yield a good set of tags. Crowdsourcing, as brought forward[1] by rich0, could yield a far more rich set of tags; together with a small bit of moderation for quality.
