pre-selected tag not reflected in selector

[fcheslack]

When loading a url directly that includes a selected tag, the items appear to be properly filtered, but the tag selector does not show any active tags so it's hard to tell this is the case.

Actually that tag is selected, it just isn't visible. Once you scroll down or filter for that tag, it appears correctly selected. Also worth noting that this problem only appears on desktop, touch tag selector shows selected tags first.

One solution would be to sort selected tags first, other (or additional) would be to display a header displaying number of selected tags (however that idea has been previously discarded in https://github.com/zotero/web-library/issues/250#issuecomment-521365654 .

Any other suggestions?

Sorry, you're right. I thought it was already sorting selected tags first but that was just by chance with the tags I had tested. I like sorting selected tags first. After testing in the client with large numbers of overlapping tags I think that's the behaviour we should have there too, but it's obviously more of a problem here.
