onTagEdited not firing?

Current behavior I have a tag-input with (onTagEdited)="onTagEdited($event)". I double click on a tag, make changes, and the tag automatically reverts back to the old value.

Expected behavior I expect the onTagEdited event to fire and the tag to be renamed.

Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions (if applicable)

I’ve been suffering a bug which I believe is this same one: when using identifiers (different from the display strings) and a tag is edited, it is always found to be a duplicate of itself and the edit is undone.

One solution would be to skip duplicate checking when editing tags, since allowDupes is defined to “tags with the same value” – so tags with the same display string should always be allowed.

The right solution for me, however, is to just check for duplicate display strings – since that’s what I want to avoid duplicating.

If you are using different values for [identifyBy] & [displayBy] ; once you edited the tag and enter the changes will be undone; using the same display and identify values will make it work!
