I also tried amending a book with A.B and then tried to drag B in the Tag Browser to sit under A but that is not possible.
I looked for a way to amend the Tags alone (Tag Editor) without using the Books hoping that by changing the Tags hierarchy, the books would follow automatically. No.
I am hoping that somebody can show me that such a thing does exist, and I missed it, ready for next time.

You can edit the tag itself in the tag navigation (right-click/rename on a tag), or from the tag editor (open an "edit metadata" window, click on the icon on the left of the "tags" field). The change will be made across all books.
Also, if you rename for exemple "Fiction - SciFi" to "Fiction.Scifi", the "Fiction" tag will be created along with "Scifi", and every book tagged "Fiction - SciFi" will reflect the change.
(I think it's because "Fiction.Scifi" is not really two separate tags, it's just the tag navigator making it look like the latter is the child of the former. But from a database and book POV, it's really just one tag named "Fiction.Scifi")
EDIT: Aaaaaand once again I'm late. Ah well.
