Bug Description
I use Zim rev416 on Ubuntu 10.04.2 and found problems with auto-formatting tags and with the Tags cloud.
Steps to reproduce:
1. open the Tags cloud (just to make the bug more visible)
2. write "@mytag " (with trailing space) anywhere and save page
=> the Tags cloud shows the new tag "mytag" as expected
3. remove the @ and save again
=> the word mytag is still orange, tag cloud shows a tag "ytag"
4. remove also the 3 letters "yta"
=> an orange "g" is left and Zim complains "Page cannot be saved - Tags should have a name"!
If the tag is on a checkbox line, it also shows up in the Task List, without such problems! I think the Tags cloud and the Task List do not agree what a valid tag is. E.g. "@mytag@" appears in the task list, but not in the tag cloud. If a space is inserted (=> "@mytag @") the tag appears in the Tags cloud, and stays there even if the space is removed again.
This bug might be loosely related to bug 791817.

Part of the issue is indeed already fixed by the fix for bug #791817
Will commit fix as well for the error when the tag becomes 1 character
Remaining is that the formatting can be out of sync with what is considered a tag following this scenario. No direct fix for that.
