Actually, this behavior should always be the same, unless you retypeset
your document or change it in another way (in which case some of the
internal toc data may get mixed up).

OK, this raises another few questions:
 * Did you try quitting and restarting Tw? I experienced some weird
behavior just now (the tags did show up, but didn't get updated when I
changed something) which went away after reloading the file.
 * Did you try adding a line like
%:My Bookmark
AFAIK this is not well documented yet (I'm going to put it on the wiki),
but it should add bookmarks to the tag window so you can jump to
arbitrary places in your sources.
 * Did you try with the most recent standard build (i.e. those on Tw's
Google Code page)? This may be related to Alain's (experimental) Lua
build, in which case we'd have to investigate in a totally different
direction.
