AFAIK you can't move or delete branch tags anyway - not sure how you'd
achieve this... deleting is probably possible (it's equivalent to deleting
all the revisions that it corresponds to) but moving makes little sense
once the branch has items committed to it.

Looking at the code it doesn't actually check for this, which is bad...
