Description
When a tag list has focus, I should be able to start typing a tag and the tag list should jump to show the first tag that starts with the typed characters. Useful for navigating long taglists. E.g. if I quickly hit 't' and then 'a', it should jump to the first tag in the list that starts with 'ta'.

Research direction
Locate the tag-list widget and its keyboard/focus handling, then trace how typed input is currently processed while a tag list has focus. Verify that successive characters select the first matching tag, including the example prefix "ta", and that long tag lists visibly jump to the match.
