Either I don't understand what you're doing, or you haven't properly understood
the use of \tag.
I'm suggesting that you do something like
\version "2.13.9"
notes = \relative e'' {
e4 \tag #'MS {e} \tag #'corr {d} c d |
e e e2 |
}
\markup { ORIGINAL: }
\score { \keepWithTag #'MS \notes }
\markup { CORRECTED: }
\score { \keepWithTag #'corr \notes }
Clearly, this doesn't require tagging "every note with a different tag" — you
simply tag the notes for different editions as you need them.
What am I misunderstanding about your particular situation?
Cheers,
Kieren.
