Now to your example: Freud, Sigmund—Biography

IMHO the Tag is Biography
The books title should be Sigmund Freud (sort: Freud, Sigmund)

I would expect Tags to always be a 'Many' (occurrence): Biography, Psychoanalysis

AND how many places would you need to look for a PERSON (not the Author)

Freud, Sigmund
You seem to be stuck in the mid 20th century where (index) card catalogs are still in use.
Using your "tags as 'many'" line of reasoning, would it be more advantageous for me to add a custom column for my own subject headings, such as "Freud, Sigmund—Biography"? It seems as though a customizable program like Calibre could be modified slightly to change that default tag delimiter to a semicolon.
