Currently, Bamboo can only build off the trunk of the repository. Bamboo should be able to perform one-off build from tagged version of a project

Hi all,
This is no doubt a perversion of Bamboo's intended use, but what
would be really useful for us would be the ability to create a one-
off build based on a tagged version of a project.Here's the ideal setup:
1. Create a project ('FOO').
2. Create a plan ('BAR') which points at the SVN trunk for the project:
http://svn.myserver.com/svn/foo/bar/trunk
3. Elsewhere, create a tag of the 'BAR' project (eg. '1.0').
http://svn.myserver.com/svn/foo/bar/tags/1.0
4. Back in Bamboo, I click the new 'Tags' tab in the Plan UI. It
automatically lists all tags for the project, and will allow me to
run the current build with the same settings as the current Plan,
except that it's pointing at the tag instead of the trunk. All
standard Bamboo events will occur, including generation of artifacts,
etc.
