The business case is as follows:
We are using managingnews-1.2 for our website. We want to have the title and a description of the feed on the website. Since we do not want to make any changes to the managingnews defaults, we don't want to activate the body field on the Feed content type. Since we only have one tag on our feeds, as an alternative we decided to use the description of the feed tag as a description of the feed.

Now, at each feed import the description and weight of the tag (term) attached to the feed are wiped.

We investigated and found a bug in the FeedsTermElement class in the FeedsParser.inc plugin and created a patch for it.
