Shared waypoints and social tagging to support collaboration in software development
M. Storey, L. Cheng, I. Bull, and P. Rigby. CSCW '06: Proceedings of the 2006 20th anniversary conference on Computer supported cooperative work, page 195--198. New York, NY, USA, ACM Press, (2006)

Abstract
This paper presents the conceptual design of TagSEA, a
collaborative tool to support asynchronous software
development. Our goal is to develop a lightweight source code
annotation tool that enhances navigation, coordination, and
capture of knowledge relevant to a software development team.
Our design is inspired by combining ” waypoints” from
geographical navigation with ” social tagging” from social
bookmarking software to support coordination and
communication among software developers. We describe the
motivation behind this work, walk through the design and
implementation, and report early feedback on how this
lightweight tool supports collaborative software engineering
activities. Finally, we suggest a number of new research
directions that this topic exposes.

Storey et al present a system for tagging java elements with arbitrary tags, and the means to search / jump to / and store sequences of tags to facilitate navigation.
The system is one of minimal functionality, but large applicability, as tags and routes are very flexible. It seems likely to grow into something very useful as imaginative users start playing with it.
