Description
I use a large list of hierarchical tags for my images, it can be slow work assigning tags due to scrolling to go up/down tree levels with the mouse.
Describe the solution you'd like
The UI currently allows the <- and -> cursor keys to be used on the head of a hierarchical list. I would like it if the <- cursor key could go back one level on the tree when on a child item in the list.

Research direction
Start by locating the hierarchical tag-list UI and its existing handling for the left and right cursor keys. Confirm the current head-item navigation behavior, then verify that pressing the left key on a child selects or reveals its parent level without disrupting existing tag assignment.
