If I add some tags using the Tag Wizard, then come back to add more, the items I already tagged are no longer marked. It would be easy for me to accidentally add the same tag twice, which would clutter up the page. Is there any way that we could remember which tags have already been added and gray them out, as a warning? I realize this may require us to store which tags have been entered in a data table, but I personally find it very confusing for the page curator to see tags that were already entered available again. There is no point in adding the same tag twice, and this is likely to seriously confuse the page creators if they see multiple tags for the same issue. The ideal solution would be to gray out and check the box for any tag already entered earlier by another curator, so you know that problem has already been reported. The reason I propose that we gray out the checkbox is so that people understand they cannot uncheck it (since we don't have a practical way to undo a tag action at this time).
This is difficult to implement technically, but would be useful. Will investigate after the higher priority bugs are fixed.
