Currently the selection criteria for the 'Tag-filter' does not allow to negate a tag, I will put this on my todo list, see if it is easy to create. Note that a document can have multiple tags, separated by spaces.

There is a limit to the number of tags that can be shown in the Properties-dialog (4 x 10=40). But you can always add new/other tags by typing them, but then only the first 40 tags will be shown as checkboxes in the Properties-dialog. I am creating a Settings-dialog for tags so they can be sorted and deleted. That should give some more control over the tags.
The tags are stored in dr.ini (as you already have discovered), I do not know if that adds some extra limitations to the number of tags. (I am using 24 tags in my experiments.)
The Properties-dialog first shows the tags that are applied to the document and then all others in the order as they appear in the dr.ini file.
