Searching for Tags when adding tasks

davidfarquhar says:
When I'm adding a task and I start to type letters for a tag or list, the results returned are different for lists and tags. So you might type "test task #abc" and what is shown below matching abc differs.

The lists section shows any lists that "contain" the text you entered, but the tags section shows only tags that "begin with" this text.

I find this difference strange - does anyone else have an issue with this. I would like them both to show anything containing the text entered - i.e. change the behaviour of the tags part.

Hi davidfarquhar,
This depends a bit on how the list and tag are named. For example, because a list can have spaces in the name it can match the second word, but if you have a list and tag named "123-abc" this typing #abc would show both the list and tag.

Let me know if I can help with anything else!
