If you're willing to store this in postgresql/postgis, you can probably
create a view to do this reasonably easily.  Then you aren't changing
the source, or needing to synchronize, but you can still have a single
tag column and multiple rows.

postgresql also has hstore, but I don't think that's what you want:
