The ability to edit tags on individual revisions and log entries should be restricted to sysops by default, as the feature might be subject to abuse.

I have. I'm certain there were some tasks after deploying, but they are probably closed now.
The ability to edit tags on individual revisions and log entries can be restricted to sysops with $wgGroupPermissions.
I didn’t see this task when creating my own, I apologize. Since work is already underway in that task, I will close this one as a duplicate :) Thanks!
I feel potentially inclined to unmerge/re-open this task — T355639 is (and/or has become) a task to track changing the config settings in Wikimedia production; whereas this task sounds like it's proposing to change the default in core MediaWiki itself.
Reopening per my previous comment. To be clear, I don't really have an opinion on this right now myself, but IMO it makes sense to track this proposed change to the core MediaWiki defaults separately from the proposed change to the config on WMF wikis.
