 Various categories are listed with checkboxes beside them and one can
 easily select which category a post should belong to.
 Tags shows a field box and the user is expected to know which tags are
 available or create new ones.

 It would be better to have a multi select to where one can see a list of
 tags and choose the ones one want to use and if needed create additional
 tags.

 For instance here is an issue I made in regards to WP Job Manager.

 Adding multi select to WordPress will likely also benefit other areas as
 well.
 Tags will very much benefit from it. Multi author posts can also benefit
 from it as well. We might perhaps also change categories to also use multi
 select.
