I would like to have a function for viewing the next and previous non-empty tag

tougher. May I ask for some help? Wouldn't be surprised if this is already done
somewhere.
Dunno if this works, I've written this right now and never tested it:
function view_non_empty(step, s)
local s = s or 1
-- The following makes sure we don't go into an endless loop

local num_tags = #screen[s]:tags()
for i=1, num_tags do
awful.tag.viewidx(step, s)
if #awful.tag.visible(s) == 0 then
return
end
end
end
This won't do what you want when there are sticky clients, but since you usually
don't have any sticky clients anyway...
