Looking good.  Just a few small points below.

This function should give the "must be of the form" error for empty
strings, rather than silently ignoring them.  It turns out
`string-to-char' on an empty string is fine (it returns 0, which will
trigger the error), but `substring' isn't.  Perhaps move the unless
into the let before, like
 (let ((op (string-to-char tag-change))
       (tag (unless (string= tag-change "") (substring tag-change 1))))

Maybe "tag-changes" instead of "tags" for this and

It's great to see all of this old copy-pasted code go away!
