Research direction

Start by reviewing how the CDDL DSL and testing tools currently handle CBOR tags, then compare that behavior with the IANA CBOR tag registry linked in the issue. A complete change would define which tags are supported and make them guide CBOR generation and validation, but the issue does not specify the tags, files, or tests involved.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Some CBOR Tags (see https://www.iana.org/assignments/cbor-tags/cbor-tags.xhtml) could provide guidance for better generation and validation of CBOR.

At the moment these are ignored, but we could selectively add support for additional tags as needed.
