Couple of things that might help:

If you tap Shift+F2 on a Tags cell in the book list, that will pop the Tags editor.

Metadata Edit has Copy and Paste tools, which can have kb shorts (I use Ctrl+c and and Ctrl+v) and the Paste tool works on multiple books.

So you could select say all books in series, use Shift+F2 to edit the Tags on the first book, then copy that books metadata to the other books in the series.

Use the Exclude fields when copy/pasting metadata tweak to exclude things like title, title_sort, series etc from the paste.
