Wouldn't this be redundant? The assignment of tags is already recorded in the object's changelog. Additionally, this would only serve to record the application of a tag, and not its removal from the object.

Yes it's indeed a duplicate. I couldn't find any related issue a few month ago, I forgot to open one and didn't check after that. Sorry.

I think I understand why you prefer not to introduce this kind of time-tracking logic, as it wouldn’t be consistent across all relationship types. Thanks for the explanation.
