Maybe I don't understand what you are asking for, but I think that the concept
of tags and branches applies fairly simply to a convenient development model.

You seem... to consider the judges as the ultimate arbiters of all
constitutional questions; a very dangerous doctrine indeed, and one which would
place us under the despotism of an oligarchy....  The Constitution has erected
no such single tribunal.
