I use three dropdown boxes because I had the kimdaba dialog in mind. You can 
use the three dropdowns to select three different parent tags. For example I 
tag my photos with Persons, Locations and some Keywords. In this case I 
select in the first Dropdown as parent tag "People" in the second one for 
example "Location/Spain/Pyrenees" and in the third one "Keywords". With these 
settings I can quickly enter the different tags by changing the corresponding 
textfield with "Tab". 
If one does not use these different categories like me,  of course it would be 
possible to use only one dropdown, textfield and listbox.
To answer your second question, yes the tags shown in the listbox are children 
of the tag shown in the dropdown above.
