[ic] Getting database handle in UserTag

[Mike Heins]

Quoting Tim Nelson (timnelson at phreaker.net):

In a global UserTag, it is:

	my $db = dbref('products')
		or die "no products table";
	my $dbh = $db->dbh()
		or die "not a DBI table";

In a catalog UserTag, there is no reliable way to do it
because of Safe restrictions.
