I think I'm missing something here how would porting it to launchpadlib
help?  I think the advantage of the greasemonkey scripts is that it
presents everything right there in your web browser and acts as a
reminder of the commonly used tags to without having to load a wiki
page.

I think there is value in using launchpadlib for complex operations but
not for just adding tags.
