Yikes!
Don't use #Apple Photos.app for tagging, it is a dead end:

@cdfinder I don’t really use tags, though I have filed Feedback with Apple about adding an API for third party access to keywords.

In Obscura I built a system for rating and flagging images by moving them in and out of dedicated albums, which is surprisingly effective, though limited, but at least it means those “tags” are accessible everywhere

Yes, that sounds like a much better idea, great!

We really get daily requests from people who used a lot of time and effort to add keywords and descriptions to their photos in #Apple #Photos.app, only so see them locked in there.
