Tagger type setting improvement

[davidpede]

I've got a tagger setting set like so:

{
      "name": "tagger",
      "label": "Category Tags",
      "type": "tagger",
      "group": "1",
      "hideInput": false,
      "autoTag": true
}

However the user can't add new tags, can only select existing ones assigned to group 1. I have the 'Allow new tags from field' box ticked for the group in manager cmp but no good.

Would be great if this could be added.

Thanks

What's the use case of adding new tags from element settings?

Would be useful for jquery/js filtering. You could be adding people profiles or images to a gallery as elements and then filtering on the tags. Like the Isotope filter example here: https://isotope.metafizzy.co/

Frustrating for the user if they can't create tags for the element in the same way they can in the 'Settings > Tags' window.
