I need to be more clear about the distinction I'm trying
to make between position-specific and game-specific
commentary.  It's true that tags and other forms can be
used to convey game-specific information.  The problem
comes in when one wants to convey information that
is specific to one game and pertinent at one point
in that game.  Example: "That was a new move for
Black" makes little sense as a positional comment
attached to the position after the move, but makes
perfect sense attached to the game at that point.

Another way of looking at the problem is a practical
one.  Which comments from one game should be displayed
when a user is browsing another game in a database?
