File Tags and Properties Annoyance

One of the really nice features of Vista is how you can use file
properties like 'Tags,' 'Categories' and 'Status' to help filter and
sort files in a folder (at least for those file types, like Office
documents, that support keywords).

I like being able to add tags to Office 2003 documents in the file
properties pane at the bottom of Explorer without needing to open the
actual file.

What annoys me is that I can't update the tags of Office 2007 in the
same pane. What a pain! I have to right-click the document,
Properties, Details tab just to be able to add a new tag to the
document! :-P

If this doesn't sound like rambling gibberish to you, then maybe you
could tell me; is there a way to "tag" an Office 2007 document the
same as I do an Office 2003 document in the Explorer file properties
pane without the right-click nonsense?

If this did sound like rambling gibberish to you, then feel free to
post your opinions anyways.

Thanks,
