Description
I created a tag (2020) as the admin user (user A), but then tried to use it under a different login (user B). I found I could not use/create that tag, but got no warnings or other information, or perhaps it was just invisible?. Anyway I saw no evidence of the tag in the user interface. I tried to rename another tag (2020a) to that name (2020), but was told that tag already existed. So, I went into the database and reassigned the 2020 tag to user B, and then I could use it as user B.

Expected
Tags are per user, this means when user B renamed tag 2020a to 2020 there shouldn't have been an error.
Correct is user A to have his own tag "2020" and user B his own tag "2020".

Actual
User B was told from creating tag "2020"
