--- Comment #1 from tagwerk19 at innerjoin.org ---
Now going back and checking the 'before' and 'after' behaviour, I can see a
subtle visual hint.

Previously links from a "Tag Folder" were overlayed with a pair of tags motif
(comparable the links of a chain motif when displaying a 'soft link'). That
overlayed motif is now not there for files although it is there for folders.

I fear the subtle hint was too subtle :-/

Having now recognised the hint I can see a comparison to soft links, deleting a
soft link does not delete the destination file. Previously, deleting a file
from a "Tag Folder" (showing the overlayed motif) also did not delete the
referenced file.

I stumbled on this after discovering Bug 431053. I tried moving a collection of
files from one "tag folder" to another, noticed that they did not disappear
from the original tag folder, thought "Strange??", and then pressed "Del".

There is a potential trap here...
