Comment (by enrico.sorcinelli):

 As I mentioned in my original #44388, the fast patch I proposed will
 transform `/tags` end point (and in general all taxonomies end points) as
 an open proxy end point for all taxonomies even for those that are been
 registered without `show_in_rest`, that maybe in general is not too good.

 Vice-versa, by constraining the search only to REST exposed taxonomies,
 assumes that users has to explicitly register custom taxonomy by setting
 `show_in_rest` to a `true` value.

 So reverting to ajax, seems to be the a reasonable solution.
