Some peer-reviewed journals (e.g. Oecologia) require figure panel labels to be inside of plot borders (although they seem to enforce these requirements inconsistently). It would be nice if there were an option like theme(plot.tag.position = "topleftinner") to place a label at the upper left corner of the inside of plot borders. Currently, I think I have to kludge this by tweaking theme(plot.tag = element_text(vjust = , hjust = ), but it's inconsistent, so I have to do this tweaking for every panel individually. Maybe there's an easier way that I don't know about?

library(ggplot2)
p1 <- ggplot(mtcars) + geom_point(aes(mpg, disp)) + labs(tag = "a)")
p1 + theme(plot.tag.position = c(0,1),
plot.tag = element_text(vjust = 1.5, hjust = -2.85))
# left of "a" just touching plot border
p3 <- ggplot(mtcars) + geom_smooth(aes(disp, qsec)) + labs(tag = "b)")
p3 + theme(plot.tag.position = c(0,1),
plot.tag = element_text(vjust = 1.5, hjust = -2.85))
#> `geom_smooth()` using method = 'loess' and formula 'y ~ x'
# "b)" is slightly further in with same theme()
