You probably should decide whether to just use SIMPLE (no matter what) 
or have a list. Since it's a violation of SAM I doubt that there is a 
way to detect it.

As it stands now for FreeBSD, making them all SIMPLE would probably be 
okay. Linux does that apparently.
I'd make it a tunable with the default to SIMPLE. I asked some of the 
(now NetApp) Engenio engineers, and their arrays' iSCSI implementation 
*does* handle all of the different tag types.

No problem. Thank you, actually. I'm starting to work more with iSCSI 
for my day job which has been an interesting change.
