SUMMARY
There is a filter by tags option in the search panel but it is very limited. It
currently doesn’t work at all (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=488047),
but when it did it consisted of a drop down menu of every tag in your entire
indexed system, which you can tick to only show items with those tags. This
list can be very long if you have a lot of tags and has no search function
within it; in fact it can be so long it can go off the bottom of the screen,
and there is no scroll function to get to the bottom of the list. A search
function and a scroll function for that Add Tags dropdown in the search panel
would go a long way to allowing users to sort through lots of tags. An even
more useful way to make that list easier to navigate would be to hide tags if
they would yield no results; that is, only show tags in the folder being
searched, that appear with the tags you have already selected.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Currently not reproducible as the menu is broken.

OBSERVED RESULT
(previous versions) Can view all tags and filter by them

EXPECTED RESULT
Can view all tags and filter by them, the list only showing tags that will
yield results, and to search tags from a potentially very long list.
