One of the issues with this approach that you need to take care with
is that Forms (from around 6i I think) stores most of its code in
great big hex chunks (if you generate an FMT you'll see what I mean).=20
We found that (with PVCS) it could'nt locate its special tags within
the FMB and thus that kind of tagging didn't work.
