@Andy: Yes, you are right. If I add --propagate to the tag add command,
it does show up in the output in the editor.
@Stephan: I ran some tests regarding tags, and have the following results:
1. Tags added with the --tag option in commit show up as expected, and
they do not propagate.
2. Tags added with tag add --propagate show up, and obviously propagate.
3. Tags added with tag add (without --propagate) do not show up.
So in summary, it seems that non-propagating tags now show up in the
editor output if they are added as part of the commit command but not if
they are added with tag add.
Kind regards,

Yes, it definitely makes sense that --tag should honor *, - and +.
When it comes to the tags output in the editor document, could the
tags added with tag add be included as well or are there some
difficulties there?
It's not difficult to do, just needs to be done. However, my fingers
are done coding for the weekend ;).
I should say that I am a relatively new Fossil user, and while I
am comfortable using it I have next to no knowledge about the
internals.
The list of tags is something we already fetch in several places, so
it's just a matter of plugging that in.
As for making --tag support all three types of tags, that looks to be
a more delicate/intricate fix.
@Andy B.: yes, the 'tag' command can be used to do all of this, but
--tag was added as a convenient way of doing it in the same step as
the commit. In libfossil's tag app (f-tag), the first character can be
used to set the type of tag:
f-tag -t +normal -v normal-tag -t -cancel -v 'cancel this tag' -t
'*propagating' -v 'propagate this tag' ...
