I think if you open up the Realm tiddler, edit it, and change the
tiddler title from the old realm name to a new realm name, you will
get a question "Do you want to rename tag "myOldRealmName" in other
tiddlers?" or something like that. If you say yes to that, I think it
will rename the Realm the way you'd expect.
Of course, that is just renaming the Realm. If you want to select 90%
of the things in a realm, and change the realm of just those, this
won't help.
