Collaborator emails should be excluded from tag list #99

On web/Electron we hide e-mail address tags from the tag list. However I noticed they are shown on Android.

(Not sharing a screenshot with this one so as not to show test emails, but hopefully it's self-explanatory.)

That has been the behavior for as long as I can remember. There are pros and cons to it for sure. I think it's best to track this in Simplenote United since it's more about consistency across platforms rather than a bug per se.

Did some testing related to this. The handling of an email address that's added as a tag is different depending on the platform.

On Simplenote for Mac 2.11:

You can add an email address as a tag, but it doesn't appear in the tag list and doesn't show in tag autocomplete.

On Simplenote for iOS 4.35:

A "COLLABORATION HAS MOVED" notice is displayed when attempting to add an email address as a tag — it can't be added at all.

But, if you add an email address tag in the web app, it will be listed in the tag list within the sidebar on iOS and associated with the correct note. But the tag isn't listed on the note itself.

On the Simplenote web app:

There is a "Collaboration has moved" notice that appears.

On Simplenote Android 2.18:

An email address tag can be added to a note without error or notice. The email address is listed within the note and in the tag list sidebar.
