I hadn't heard about CSS slowing tags down. When I tried to make a TW with
37000 vocabulary entries, it slowed to a standstill because the tag
operator apparently isn't optimized for large numbers of tagged tiddlers.
It turned out to be faster to do a search in the tag list field, which is
surprising.

Thanks for that! Now that I've seen it in action, I'm not sure it's an
improvement. Back to tag subsets.
