5. What are the use cases for tags? I can only see X/no X in the spec.

One other I see is OpenMAX + Gstreamer versus pure Gstreamer versus OpenCORE. I guess the generic use case I see there is being able to identify what sort of software components the hardware pack provides support for -- a hardware pack for X would require some X-specific glue code that wouldn't be required in a different environment.

Note that even X/no-X may be simplistic, because the no-X case can be varied and potentially require different contents in the hardware packs.
