Thats odd.  I opened up a tag file series in the fx tree a month or so
ago and it came up fine.  I played around with them and was quite
happy.  But I recall a few weeks ago someone (Matt Lind? Possibly?) said
there is a problem with them in that the tag IDs may switch part way
through your animation... making them useless except for stills.  I've
not tried this out yet myself.
