Agree with Franck. Merging Add and Remove tags sub-menu will be more clean
for user.

Another idea is to limit tags entries when list is huge. The sub menu can be
very big and become unsuitable. There is a bug in B.K.O about this subject.

A possible solution is to add the already used tags in first, the most
recent tags used in second, and a menu entry to extend list for the rest (as
M$ Windows do with "start" task bar button for ex.)

Your viewpoints ?
