Comment (by juiiee8487):

 Replying to [comment:3 dd32]:
 > [attachment:42771.diff] seems like a good direction to me - just make
 the category-specific functions not care if it's an actual category or
 not. We could probably do the same to the tag-specific functions if any of
 those exist.

 I have created patch 42771-tag-specific.diff for get_tag_link() based on
 @boonebgorges's 42771.diff

 I hope that will be helpful.
