Patch to treat tag inputs as "real" CSV strings.

So you could type:

foo, bar, "baz, qux"

and have the following tags added to your post.
foo
bar
baz, qux

I don't really care much about the issue though :)  If you do and like
the idea, pimp the ticket.  If you do but don't like the idea, suggest
something else :)
