Yes.

With your help, I wrote:

(defun my-set-tags-including-inherited ()
  (interactive)
  (let (
    (alltags (org-get-tags-at))
    )
    (org-set-tags-to alltags)
    )
  )

Which provides me "the feature" I was looking for. It can be
simplified, I know. However, I tried to add a list of tags I *don't*
want to be added to the heading but failed so far.

alltags content example:
(#("test1" 0 5 (inherited t)) #("foobar" 0 6 (inherited t))
 #("test2" 0 5 (inherited t)) #("baz" 0 3 (inherited t)))

Do you have an idea, how I can delete all items contained in my
black-list?

My example black list would be: (ignored-tags '(test1 2del crypt))

My latest approach on a single-item level was:
(remove* "test1" alltags :test 'equal :key 'car)

Sorry for being unclear.

I thought, there might be something like "org-add-inherited-tags" or
similar I was not aware of.
