Description Guido

It would be useful to allow the user to select several files/folders and then 
right click in one of them and "Team > tag with existing" to assign an existing 
tag to that files.

This action is currently supported on multiple resources in the Repo view. 
Also, "Tag as Version" in the navigator (and other views) supports the force 
flag which essentially amounts to the same thing except the use must type in 
the tag manually (new in 3.0).

It would be nice if there was a unfied UI for doing this (i.e. Tag as Version 
could have a second page for Tag with Existing or something like that) so I'm 
leaving this bug open as a reminder.

My vote's for the unified UI.  I spent ages once trying to do this from the 
Navigator view, knowing that it was possible (however, from the CVS 
perspective), but not remembering exactly how I did it.

Tag as version supports the selection of an existing tag in the Details area 
and the enablement of the Move tag options.
