Two more issues:
1) if you start kepler-2.2.0 for the first time, your File menu will have 1
Open... option (can open .moml, .kar, .xml). If you move to reporting-2.1.0,
you have Open..., Open MoML..., Open MoML URL..., as it is at this version.
However when you move back to 2.2.0, the 2 MoML menu items incorrectly remain.
This is because tagging adds a menu item, which causes uiMenuMappings_en_US.xml
to serialize to disk, and 2.2.0 lacks code to remove the extra MoML items. 
The tagging menu item doesn't show up in 2.2.0, but this is more by 'luck'--
the MenuMapper.getActionFor can't create an Action for the missing
org.kepler.tagging.TagManagerAction and so it fails to get added.

2) There were some changes to how the tagging menu item gets added post
reporting-2.1.0. So in post reporting-2.1.0 the item gets added to the
uiMenuMappings_en_US.xml on every startup. This doesn't cause an error per say,
but the xml file grows with duplicate entries. The sensor-view suite has a
similar problem with menu items it adds.
