Topic: Issue with docs on settings tags

Regarding this page: http://hapifhir.io/doc_rest_operations.html
There is a statement under "Setting Tags in a Create/Update method" which states: "Note that FHIR specifies that in an update method, any tags supplied by the client are copied to the newly saved version, as well as any tags the existing version had."
I believe this is incorrect. @John Moehrke can you confirm?

I also found this:
http://hapifhir.io/doc_tags.html
Which has a broken link to http://www.hl7.org/implement/standards/fhir/extras.html#tag
Was hopeful I would find some answers there... then the cursed broken link

the tags should be no different than any other element. Where in the FHIR spec is this stated? As anywhere this is said needs to be corrected. There are some cases where policy may declare that a change in only the tag is not a change in the lastUpdated, but that is a policy not a mandate.

the correct link is http://hl7.org/fhir/resource.html#simple-tags

and, in particular, with regard to this question: http://hl7.org/fhir/resource.html#tag-updates

so then, how does one indicate that they want to replace the security tags with new ones? This is mentioned as the final "However..." sentence

so those operations are for meta... which is fine and interesting. I am more concerned about the tag-update rules that have special handling for security tags. If all of meta was handled the same way, then it would be more clear.

all of meta is special. the rules are different for different elements in meta

the tag-update text should reference the $meta operations. right?

that would be useful, yes
