Excellent!
However, I tested the suggestion above (and implemented it), where you
have to type RET between each tag, and I don't think that is harder to
use then needing to type a comma (or whatever separator you choose) in
between each tag. The only disadvantage I can see really is that you
do not see all the tags you are about do add at the same time.
Anyway, I will try `completing-read-multiple' as an option, it seems
to do what everyone needs.
