Yes. This is how gThumb and F-Spot do tag autocompletion, and it's much faster to tag many images with those apps than with XnView MP, using the keyboard.

Already there. Use the Categories Pane (F9 to switch focus from/to it) and write down „vacantion”[enter]„kids”[enter]„2017”[enter]

F9 doesn't work in preview or full-screen mode. If my workflow is to view image after image in full-screen mode and tag it, what option do I have?

Hmmm... THE best option by far is to use the dual-screen mode. It will make your life waaay easier in many aspects (not only WRT XnView MP) - graphics, programming, inet/email etc. If you have a two monitor setup (a dual-head VGA powering two monitors) you can configure XnView MP to use the 2nd monitor for the Full-Screen mode and then F9 will work flawlessly.
