[ckan-dev] Remove free tags via API

[von Waldow, Harald]

Hello everybody

It appears that it is not possible to remove tags via
package_update|patch.

Because this goes through the validator
ckan.logic.validators.tag_string_convert(), which only appends.

Going through the UI, the job is done by  _tag_string_to_list() in
controller resp. view, which replaces the previous tag_string.

It that correct? How to remove free tags through the API? Should I
register a validator like "tag_string_convert_replace()"?


Kind regards,
Harald
