No, I am not sure there are tags at all, either; however, the pymol
website usually mentions the subversion revision a particular release is
synonymous with.

Yeah, it's a PITA...

Yes.  It's the only 2D structure editor for Qt I know, though.  However,
people who like Qt probably don't like how xdrawchem uses it, so...

Removal can maybe wait for another couple of months, but if the
situation does not improve, should definetely happen for squeeze.
