Bug Description
Presumably there are some invalid characters that can be typed in when doing a tag. Namely, anything that must be escaped for display in a URL. We follow whatever rules KARL2 has for this, so we might need to do some research. For example, does KARL2 allow unicode chars in a tag?
We need to detect in some ways when a tag has a bad char. Perhaps the safest thing to do is let the server decide. This means our protocol needs to support sending back a server-generated error message which we can then display.
Of course, we then have to decide our strategy for displaying errors. jQuery UI dialog, or just a status line somewhere?

Unicode tags are working now. I agree that such checks should be done in the server.
Error handling for add/del tag should be a task on its own where this has to be covered as well.
