This relies on mitchellh/goamz#77 and adds the ability to tag instances. I haven't gotten the update part happening yet, but I figured I'd PR this anyway as it's useful as-is.

This is related to #28 as well.

I implemented a concept mentioned in #87, where I'm sorting the tags to ensure a consistent order after refresh or apply. One thing with this approach is that tags have to be specified in alphabetical key order in the config... This sounds like a bad thing long-term - please do let me know if there are plans to handle sets/arrays differently in the future.

This is also dependent on mitchellh/goamz#79 now, as I had to add a DeleteTags method to goamz.

I rebased and squashed some stuff to make this easier to merge, and to make it easier to merge it separately from any other taggable things that I'll be PR'ing soon.

I am using in conjunction with #175 this works pretty good, updates tags some times but that is not offensive.

Tags make terraform usable for me, great work

Awesome! So, this is still waiting on mitchellh/goamz#79. Also, @mitchellh is working on improvements to handle the ordering of sets. This will allow us to skip the alphabetical solution and let the user specify any order. I would say we should probably wait and adapt for that. I'll let Mitchell describe how to do that once it's implemented.

Ditto as this comment, same situation.

Tags are still very important!
