Thank you so much, Kovid, for your answer.

To be very explicit:
In the past, if I had one single book in a virtual library with the tag (say) «sunshine», and subsequently I deleted that book, then also the tag «sunshine» would automatically disappear.

To remedy this, I have a dummy book with absolutely all tags I already use, and also those I might use in the future (hence getting to the limit of 99 tags for one single book).
This is not an elelgant solution. I would have very much preferred to be able to edit directly the tag list which should be however permanent for the whole library. Then my dummy book would become superfluous.
Alternatively or additionally, if I delete the only book with the tag «sunshine», I'd like to be asked, if that tag whould be also deleted from the tag list, or not.

What do you think, Kovid?
Thank you for your help until now.
