In this case, it is a bit hard to see how one could take advantage of it. But it is perhaps safest to make the new tag. I'd obviously have to explain in some detail in the Customization manual what BEFORE and AFTER mean. This does seem unfortunate, though, since I find it hard to see how one could take advantage of this kind of bug. In our own styles, InPreamble is only ever used to put e.g. titles into the preamble.
