The digikam tags are just stored in a database, so if you shut it down first (or are using a non-sqlite database in recent versions) you can add tags in bulk using raw SQL, restart digikam and write the lot out to the images with a couple of mouse clicks. :)
(but, to be honest, a lot of the time tagging depends on the contents of the images, and for that a bunch of select-mouse-clicks and tag clicks are actually a *good* user interface. Using WIMP GUIs for things that actually are graphical in nature seems like a good idea to me.)

Well, ... I've got so many tags. I tag with e.g. names, and so I need to write, I'm writing Jack Smi[...word complete...]. Etc.
So what I want is to go to next picture, add tag «jack smi...», add tag «ha» [ppy], next picture. etc.
You can't do that quickly by the mouse. By all means, the mouse ui can stay, I would probably use that for some things, but not for my main tagging.
