Why not? How is TAGS different from any other file visited by Emacs,
with respect to desktop-save-mode?

We don't force our users to use project.el in order to have some
file-visiting buffers to be saved in the desktop file. E.g., I don't
use project.el, but I do use TAGS all the time, in particular with
Emacs. Emacs supports lists of TAGS tables since time immemoriam, to
let users use M-. and friends with more than a single program.
