We just started the work on that together with Enrico. So far, we have a file 
in svn called package-tags and it currently has the following content:

# In this file we keep the debtags for packages in "main"
# where special conditions apply

[etch] kfreebsd-5 <unsupported> (FreeBSD not yet supported)
[lenny] kfreebsd-6 <unsupported> (FreeBSD not yet supported)
[lenny] kfreebsd-7 <unsupported> (FreeBSD not yet supported)


Please note that atm all contrib/non-free packages are unsupported by default.

Cheers
Steffen
