svn to hg conversion with tag history?

When I convert an svn repository to hg using the convert extension,
I lose the history of my tags. In other words, in the resulting hg
repository, the .hgtags file is created in the tip changeset and has
no history prior to that.
Ideally, I'd like the .hgtags file to have the history corresponding
to the tag creation in the svg repository: in other words, have
commits to the .hgtags file be part of the history, in the same
changeset as anything else in the svn revision in which that copy
operation occurred, with the correct commit comment, author, and
date.
Are there any svn to hg conversion tools that do this? (The
comments in
http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/index.cgi/RepositoryConversion
don't indicate one way or another.) And is it worth filing a bug on
the hg convert extension requesting this feature?
