Yes, my opinion is that now that following tags is out (and that's something I've thought would be good for quite a while), that we would be better served by allowing multiple tags on a post. The reason is that a singular tag functions as a community organizer, while multiple tags can transcend a singular community and hopefully bring groups together. I am lobbying to have a character limit in the tag field and nothing more. That limit would also be arbitrary, obviously, but the other option is infinity, and we have to stop somewhere. Some happy medium probably exists.
