I'm not sure why you say this is not constructive. Even if you ignore (in my opinion a rather productive brain-storming discussion that follows) the original bug report proposes a very simple solution (it doesn't get any more constructive). Essentially the same idea is implemented for Flickr on http://smark.us --- and it's by far the best way of tag entry I've seen.

What I suspect you are alluding to is that what you propose is considerably easier to implement than what's been requested (and voted for). That may be the case, but that's really the question of choosing programming ease over usability. You seem to prefer the former, I think the latter is more important. Of course, given that I'm not the one implementing it, I have no real say on the matter. 

By the way, to clarify what I don't like about what you propose: tagging photos would still require using the mouse. What I really want is the ability to tag photos using only keyboard. This would make it much simpler to go through tagging a large batch of photos.

Best,
Dmitriy
