How about let bodhi do the tagging? When there is an update, you could click on "tag this package", and bodhi will do the rest. If the update is deleted or obsoleted by another one, the tag will be deleted again. This doesn't solve the problem, that maintainers could tag a package and never push the update out, but that could happen with manual tagging too, isn't it?
