It depends on what we do with the tag.

"Applicable only to finder-mode buffers" doesn't tell how we use this
information.  We use it to filter out commands as irrelevant in
certain contexts.  But this command _is_ relevant even when the major
mode of the current buffer is something other than finder-mode,
because the user can click on text in a non-selected window.
