addTag adds an object not a string?

[LeahPike]

Expected behaviour

I'm binding to a list of string, when I enable addTag and add a new value ( Purple ) it should add just a string to the array.

[ "Red", "Green", "Blue", "Purple", "Yellow" ]

Actual behaviour

It's adding an object to the array.

[ "Red", "Green", "Blue", { "label": "Purple" }, "Yellow" ]

More Info

If I add an existing tag ( Yellow ), it just adds the string.

    onAdd(value) {
        console.log(value);
    }

{label: "Purple"}
Yellow

@LeahPike you are probably using bindLabel which is not necessary since you have simple strings. If you have bindLabel provided, addTag will create object with that property because it must map label out from it.

I tried not setting the bindLabel at all, or setting it to empty, but it was persistent about wanting to add new tags as an object with a label property.

ok, I can confirm it is a bug.
