    Yes John I agree, it's exactly this kind of symmetry than XnView must have.
    ...same behavior & menu items & shortcut structure for the function Select and Tag.

    Space key behavior has been changed in Win version, Space and Insert keys work the same as Ctrl+A to select - toggle tag selected, Ctrl+T is to invert tag, selected.
    Tag current file {Spacebar}
    Untag current file {Spacebar
    I disagree, the same shortcut for two different options?? What about this:

    Tag selected file(s)
    Untag selected file(s)
    Invert tag of selected file(s) {Ctrl+T}


    "Tag current file" is not needed IMHO, if I want to tag a single file, I can disable selection and use "tag selected". What we do need is "tag selected", "tag all (in folder)", "untag all (in folder)", and "invert tag (all files in folder)".

    ...and wee need a new option from Win version:

    Toggle tag of selected file(s) {Space}

    ...and for complete "file manager mode"

    Invert Tag (all file(s)) {?}
    Toggle tag (all file(s)) {?}


    ...and customizable Shift+arrows (left, right, up, down) to:

    - select files (current behavior)
    - tag files (tag files automatically with Shift+Right for example)


    ...very important option here is also this one (already requested):

    - Go to the next item after selecting with Space (and Insert)
