I am using the Vision Tag Browse Tree component to allow the user to select a list of historical tags. I will use that list to export the tags' history to a csv file.

But the Tag Browse Tree component allows the user to select folders and whole UDTs. These end up in the selectedPaths dataset along with the actual historical tags he selects.

Is there a way to prevent non-tags from being selected or getting into the selectedPaths dataset?

No, you'll have to filter those yourself at time-of-use.
