missing tag in private dictionary

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I have some dicom files from a Phillips scanner.

pydicom gives the following exception when trying to read the file
Tag (2001, 105f) not found in DICOM dictionary

however, this tag is in the private dictionaries:
'Philips Imaging DD 001': ...
'2001xx5f': ('SQ', '1', 'Stack Sequence', ''),

I would prefer not to ignore these values ala the proposed solution to issue 
#91 incase I need to save the data after loading it.

What version of the product are you using?
pydicom 0.9.5

I solved the problem by just adding the tags that I found to the main dicom 
dictionary as follows:

'2001105F': ('SQ', '1', 'Stack Sequence', ''),
'20019000': ('SQ', '1', 'Unknown', ''),
'20011068': ('SQ', '1', 'Unknown', ''),
'20051389': ('SQ', '1', 'Unknown', ''),
'20051080': ('SQ', '1', 'Unknown', ''),
'20051083': ('SQ', '1', 'Unknown', ''),
'20051084': ('SQ', '1', 'Unknown', ''),
'20051085': ('SQ', '1', 'Unknown', ''),
'2005109e': ('SQ', '1', 'Unknown', ''),
'20051371': ('SQ', '1', 'Unknown', ''),
'20051402': ('SQ', '1', 'Unknown', ''),
'2005140E': ('SQ', '1', 'Unknown', ''),
'2005140F': ('SQ', '1', 'Unknown', '')

It seems to be restricted to SQ elements since the dictionaryVR() function does 
not seem to look up tags in the private dictionaries.
