Wooow, that's a lot! :D
Not sure we want all of them on the extra section, but at least some
would be good to have, yeah :) (I mostly think of GIO, GTK, GDK, Cairo,
GConf...)

Not sure, generally we prefer let the user download such tag files...
However, this is a "core language" tag file, so maybe, not sure.

Anyway, it'd probably be good to at least use it to update std.vala.tags :)

That's probably one of the reason why we don't distribute 135 tag files
by default :D
