Enabling "Full Read/Write" causes all open folders in the Tag Browser to collapse. I tested this in 8.1, and the folders stayed expanded.

Was this intended feature?

This is quite jarring and it’s a nuisance to reopen/navigate to where you were.

Hopefully is just a bug and can be changed back!

Yeah, and it wasn’t like this in 8.1.

This is a known issue in 8.3. There is a ticket to get it addressed
