I see no reason why an intelligent system couldn't learn common synonyms. It would be a pain to do on an exclusively local system, but on a networked system it could trade tags with others and learn these synonyms. You might call yours 'photos' while I call mine 'images'. When I transfer a file from you to me, it would be able to translate the tags into my own personal folksonomy. Which would be more convenient than the current situation where I have to rename and integrate into my filesystem every file I download from you.
