After I added the ability to name a parent in a tag using the colon, I saw that there were various tags that should have a parent/child relation based on meaning, and it seemed like it would be awkward to rewrite their names. I was also thinking about adding the ability to tag tags. I brought these two ideas together by adding the ability to tag parent tags. Instead of allowing tagging in the footer, the info page for a tag includes a form for adding a parent. This works the same as the tagging form and uses the same script. This allows anyone to add a parent, and it allows a tag to have multiple parents.
