Comment (by jhodgdon):

 OK, I just added a new attachment, tagsection.php -- this has the
 following functionality, implemented as a plugin:

 a) Hides the existing tag entry field on the post edit screen.

 b) Adds a new section for entering tags.

 c) In new section, tag entry field does "type-ahead": as you type tags, a
 list of suggestions pops open, and you can click on an entry to select it.

 d) When you click the "add" button next to the tag entry field, tags are
 attached to the post (actually they are just put into the hidden main tag
 entry field, and when the post is saved, they are added).

 e) Tags currently on the post are shown below the Add field/button. Each
 has a delete button next to it that allows you to remove it from the post.

 I wrote this as a plugin, not a patch on the WP code itself. Maybe someone
 can turn it into a patch on the WP code? I wasn't sure where to put the JS
 stuff...

 Enjoy...
