Yes, that's also an option, but it's a bit more work because it
requires changes in the perl code and the database tables since I need
to put the tag in a string or in a numeric column depending on the
checkbox.

The SQL in this menu is created dynamically in the perl code, so to
handle this you would be required to change the perl code independent
on which solution you use. 

The "Tags" menu is a special case which would be possible to handle
without database changes, it would be possible for me to add an option
to the menu configuration where you could enter a list of tags it
should handle as numeric values and use this in the perl code to add
floor() to the order by directives.

Does the "Tags" menu really work good for BPM's ? Doesn't it create a
huge list of values ? It seems like BPM would be better to browse in a
menu that groups BPM values together into a number of ranges, similar
to what the decades menu does with years.

There are no dumb questions...
