Well, to answer this one I'd add a third hashtable

Do you think you can explain a bit more?
Can I create a hash entry with two keys, or do
I just combine them somehow to a single key?

Just combine. "$tag,$id" should do the job since ids contain only
digits (hence no comma). In Tcl pseudo-code:

addtag --> if {![info exists tab($tag,$id)]} {
set pos [llength $tags($id)]
set tab($tag,$id) $pos
lappend tags($id) $pos
}

dtag --> if {[info exists tab($tag,$id)]} {
set pos $tab($tag,$id)
unset tab($tag,$id)
set tags($id) [lreplace $tags($id) $pos $pos]
}

remove item --> foreach tag $tags($id) {unset tab($tag,$id)}
unset tags($id)
