[Stephen Donner [:stephend] Not actively reading bugmail]

Rather than reopening bug 560415, I filed this anew.

STR:

1. Log in
2. Load https://preview.addons.mozilla.org/z/en-US/firefox/addon/5579/
3. Try to add a tag

Actual Results:

Oh, and here's a somewhat-lengthy screencast (which also shows some random session problem that I can't readily reproduce):

OK, so, for posterity: this particular case happened because I was logging in to the add-on details page using Zamboni, and so I had no Remora login.

Verified INVALID; glad I got a chance to talk to Wil in person.
