That's currently a @todo, on the ever present list of things we need  
to get to when we have time.

Not automatically.

Yes, that will remove the tag from the object.

No, they should decrement. See e.g.,  
Content_Tagger::removeTagFromObject and Content_Tagger::untag(). If it  
isn't working correctly, please file a bug report.

The stats *should* allow you to do this.

I honestly don't remember. I vaguely remember some discussion  
surrounding this, but was long ago.

Regardless, as mentioned, we do have a @todo for adding some UI for  
managing tags, at least on the admin level. If this is something  
really important for you, you can consider sponsoring the work to get  
it moved from the "when we have free time" list.
