Any way to export such a list? It would be helpful to me as I try to rationalize them again, having stepped away from the project for a while.

Thanks!
You might brush off your SQL skills and download a SQLite database browser

Tags exist in the ... wait for it.... Tags table in the metadata.db

File:Export: Table as a CSV file
