But to get back on topic, I wonder what Wiki and Josh will have to say on the subject? Just how did the DEA go about seizing the Bitcoins? Will the DEA be able to back trace the Bitcoins to determine who possessed them in the past, and will they be investigated for possible crimes?

Taint is the % of funds received by an address that can be traced back to another address.
The data can be used to evaluate the anonymity provided by a mixing service. For example Send Coins from Address A to a Mixing service then withdraw to address B. If you can find Address A on the taint list of Address B then the mixing service has not sufficiently severed the link between your addresses. The more "taint" the stronger the link that remains.
