Actually, tagline keeps the id in the file, while explicit keeps a 
separate file in .arch-ids/filename.id.

Tagline is actually better for keeping track of things, as it is 
guaranteed to stay with the file (hence why you don't need tla mv).

It might have a slight performance overhead, as you have to read chunks 
from the file to see if the tag exists. But you would have to read the 
id file as well, so there isn't a huge difference.
