Currently you can do something like that in Copy, Save and FTP dialogues if you use the option to Apply Metadata template, where you could set up rating color and tag for all the processed images. The issue is that this template is not dialog specific and is a global metadata template setting.

Adding something like
Set Rating
Set Color
Set Tag

as standalone settings to these dialogs could really help, without the need to dive into Metadata Template Dialog every time.
But also having a LOCAL Metadata Template option for everything would be awesome

Not really! What we requesting is an automatic and permanent "tag", "color" or metadata change AFTER a ftp upload was successful. Usually, I send pictures with "send&forget". If I change the tab now I loose all information about failed uploads. That is a problem! Of course I can apply a template with color code etc. to each photo which was uploaded, but this time consuming and not really user friendly.

I'm only saying there is a workaround to do it. But I agree that having a proper & easy way of setting a tag/color/rating AFTER operation is complete would be the best.

I upload only the files incl. caption, not more editing. My old Nikon tagged the upload files, i dont understand why photomechanic dont have this point. Its a simple thing. Later at home i check all other files, and dont know i have always sent the files.

There are a lot of things which should be pretty simple in implementation. Hopefully CameraBits are collecting all of the feature requests for PMv7
