The answer to that is lost in history (for me). Perhaps Richard and
Francesco (cc'ed) will remember.
But since it is here, it is, IMO, a Good Thing, because we can easily
affect its operation where it's important to us. Especially lately,
when the front-end was changed, and the new one has different
expectations.

That's not true, there were a couple of non-trivial changes lately
that are not cleanups, and I think there will be one more soon. This
thread discusses some of them, the other one is discussed here:

Which ctags do you allude to here? There are quite a few of them out
there.

I don't think we should remove this one, no.
