I think we may be extending the semantics of rel-tag beyond
usefulness here. I don't think every open-ended list of grouping
terms should be considered tags. Another similar example is hCard
departments. Should those be using rel-tag too? I think there's
actually a subtle semantic difference between tags and other grouping
terms, though I'm not sure exactly what it is. Regardless, this is
apparently not a point of consensus yet, and I'd suggest we proceed
without genre for now, intending to add it later when rough consensus
is reached, and still have a useful microformat before then.
