Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the sibling manager and the tag-selection entry point, then determine how multiple selected tags are currently passed to it. Done should allow separate greater siblings for multiple tags and apply the updates without committing each one until the batch is complete.

Description

feature-request system:tag-management

Being able to mark multiple tags and edit siblings for them separately. Currently it would open the sibling manager with all of them in the lesser sibling list. Doing a lot of them gets tedious since Hydrus will lock up for a few seconds after comitting one.

Preferably you would get a window with one tag per row and then you just put the greater sibling to the right, click apply and go.
Though having a queue that opens the next in line when hitting "Apply" would also work, as long as it doesn't do the update process until you're done with all of them.
