Last time when I read a discussion about these tags, people at least at 
this side of the pond seemed to come to the conclusion that we ask 
testers for their consent if in doubt, before adding such a tag if they 
didn't do so themselves.  (That's different from how we handle Acked-by: 
from fellow developers which we often imply from an informally given OK.)
