 Steps to reproduce.

 1. Fresh WordPress install.
 1. Add a post category.
 1. Add a post tag with the same title.
 1. Edit the post category title.
 1. Notice the post tag title also changed.

 This also happens when editing the post slug. Does not matter if
 taxonomies are hierarchical/non-hierarchical. Also renames terms in custom
 taxonomies. Editing a term's parent does not change other term parents.
 Only specific to name and slug.
