Same here. I have a few things that tags would be nice for, but it's infrequent enough that current filesystems are fine. Couple of examples
* Tagging the source [CD/iTunes/Amazon etc.] of my music - tags would be nice (and possibly doable as IDTags etc.) but "/music/source/artist/album" or "/music/artist/album [source]" works fine
* Multiple paths to the same file - I have various media (movies, music, books, TV shows etc.) related to a single series in one folder. Those should also be in my main music etc. folders. Again tagging with the series name to make a virtual "series" folder would be nice, but symlinks solve that and it happens infrequently enough that it isn't an issue.
Other than those edge cases, I'd say most of my data fits pretty well into a hierarchical structure.
