If you're willing to store this in postgresql/postgis, you can probably<br>
create a view to do this reasonably easily. Then you aren't changing<br>
the source, or needing to synchronize, but you can still have a single<br>
tag column and multiple rows.<br>
<br>
postgresql also has hstore, but I don't think that's what you want:<br>
