Facebook – How to Stop People from Tagging Without Permission

facebookfacebook-privacyfacebook-tagspermissions

On Facebook, it's possible by default for someone's friends to tag him in a photo without his permission. Is there any way for a user to stop his friends from doing that, or to at least require his approval before the tag becomes public?

I don't know if there are other places where people can have their information shared without permission, but if so, this question applies to those places too.
