Multilanguage tags, as well as synonyms, could simply

as #REDIRECTs, maybe. [[Tag:Blume]] would redirect to [[Tag:Flower]],

the
system would then have to search for both Blume and Flower internally.
Also, that could be a problem with "false friends" (en:Gift=present
vs. de:Gift=poison).
Or force the user to select a language when entering the tag. This
means though that we either need a pre-save transform to transform
[[Tag:en/flower]] and [[Tag:de/Blume]] to their canonical
[[Tag:flower]] and reject tags without language specified, or we need
to have tags entered separately from the page text. But then run into
the history problem again.
