Comment:

 We are experiencing a problem with this that's straightforward to
 reproduce --

 We have unique terms such as **1:23** and **12:3**; if added from a post
 page, both get sanitised in term_exists() to same **123** and only one
 term is saved.

 [Note: if we add the terms from the standalone terms page (rather than on
 the post page), the term isn't passed through term_exists() and we can
 create both without problem]
