If this capability already exists, a pointer is welcome. It won't be the first time I've missed something under my nose.

When importing volumes to Calibre, they often have tags already defined. But sometimes they don't, and the user must create them. (Or add tags they prefer to those predefined.) One capability I'd find useful is short macros that expand to longer lists.

For instance, I have an assortment of SF stories that were originally published in Galaxy Magazine in the 1950's. The copyrights expired, and the stories have been appearing on Project Gutenberg. The standard tag set I apply to these is "Fiction, General, Science Fiction, Short Fiction, Galaxy Magazine". I'm getting enough that a short way of entering that tag set would be a boon.

My thought was a macro, specified with a leading character like @. So @GalMag entered in the Tags field might expand to the tag set above when Calibre processes the entry. There would need to be a macro editor to allow creation, listing, modification, and deletion of tag sets.

Does this seem doable and worth doing?
