Yes.  In CVS or git I would suggest a system with both fixed tags and
a "moving tag" which is named something like "recent clean state on
trunk" (with the obvious semantics).  The moving tag of course always
points at the most recent fixed tag.  This has been quite popular with
XEmacs beta testers where we use it to tag "latest-beta".

Unfortunately, I don't know whether Darcs tag semantics would support
this usage, since I've not used them this way, and "help tag" doesn't
show a "--delete" or "--force" option.
