"deep_house" tag is split on save?

Clarence Simpson 124 posts	. permalink Thu, Feb 10, 2011 @ 10:47 AM I tried to tag my latest upload as “deep_house” since that was one of the requested genres for the Emergence project, but the tag ends up getting saved as two tags: “deep” and “house”. Interestingly, I tried tagging it as “tech_house” and that worked just fine without splitting. Weird.

For instance if you put in Stratocaster, you’ll find it gets rewritten to Strat. I wonder if something similar is happening here?
