Please add a per-vocabulary permission to add new terms.
Currently, the only way to give someone permission to add new terms to a single vocabulary without giving them permission to administer taxonomy is to add an auto-complete widget (tagging). This creates an relationship between the page the term or terms is/are added on and the terms themselves, whether or not a meaningful relationship actually exists.
Use case: To allow a particular non-administrator to create, say, 50 glossary terms, without relating them to specific node content.
Currently, without the kludge, an admin has to add the terms.

drummDrupal.org has at least a couple vocabularies that could be better maintained if specific roles could add terms to specific vocabularies.
