Bug Description
So I have noticed that with the new wonderful Author merge feature that was just implemented, if two authors had the same work, the works are merged together.
This is wonderful but it has a pretty bad side-effect. rather than keeping all the subject, person and place tags from a work.
Here is some examples of works who subjects have vanished (you'll have to look at the history to see):

There is very little pattern, that I can see, to what stays and what goes. Mutual tags seem to stay (that's a bit of a guess though).
