That's an interesting "caveat".

Generally it is a good idea to give an additional opaque pointer to
callback functions of iteration API so that code that uses the
iteration can pass custom data to its callback.

Looking at the way you enhanced each_tag_name_fn, however, you added
a specific argument instead; that is the only reason why you need a
"caveat".  If it were "void *", it would have been in line with the
usual practice, not worth mentioning as a "caveat", but could even
be advertised as a feature, replacing the last "Caveat" paragraph
with something like this:

	The callback function for for_each_tag_name() didn't allow
	callers to pass custom data to their callback functions.
	Add a new opaque pointer to each_tag_name_fn's parameter to
	allow this.

You'd replace "const char *fmt_pretty" with "void *cb_data" here, and...

... also here.  Then introduce fmt_pretty as an auto variable in the
function ...

... by adding this line here:

	const char *fmt_pretty = cb_data;

And this "const char *fmt_pretty" also becomes "void *cb_data"...

... and here.  Reintroduce fmt_pretty as a name local to the
function by doing the same thing as for_each_tag_name() above.

Thanks.
