1. Selectively removing tags from one or more images. It would be
great to select a group of images, then right-click, remove tags,
and have a pop-up list of tags common to the selected images.
Removing a particular tag from photos seems quite convoluted.
The "modify tags" dialog works similar to what you've described. Is
that not what you're looking for?
Not really. The 'modify tag' option is fine for single images with just
a few tags, but it is greyed-out for multiple selections. And the pop-up
window size for the 'modify tags' option is so small that it soon
becomes cumbersome for images with lots of tags, where presumable the
way to remove the unwanted tag is to manually delete it from the text
string.
We also had this feature suggestion:

Yes, I shall just need to get used to different ways of working. A
typical situation might be where I want to tidy up the tags for a
particular event. If I'm working on a batch of photos (import roll,
event, or search pattern) I may identify a few photos and manually
select them using Ctrl-Click, but if I then locate the tag in the
hierarchy and select it, my multi-clicked selection has been unselected.
It's the jumping back and forward between views (time/tag) that I find
disconcerting.
2. Rapidly locate a particular tag in the hierarchy. For example,
for renaming a tag I need to remember 'where I left it', which, at
the moment, could be anywhere!
I know there's been some discussion of keyboard navigation lately for
the sidebar. Is that what you have in mind, or something else?
I'm thinking along the lines of a Find that works for tags. I think at
the moment if I want to rename a tag, the only way is to manually locate
it in the hierarchy using the mouse. My main tag bundle is 7 levels deep
and it can take me a while to track down the one I want.
