Can't differentiate tags with same name #733

Hello,
First I'd like to say thank you for your work on teedy as it seems to me to be a great framework to implement taxonomy on documents.
In that sense, I heavily use the tag hierarchy and I may have a lot of tags in the end.

I see that the ui lets me create tags with the same name (even with the same parent) but fails search or navigate to them individually since it seems the tags are most of the time resolved by their name (e.g. "tag:name_of_the_tag")
It leads to unsuccessful searches or documents belonging to a wrong tag hierarchy. With multiple users and/or a big enough hierarchy it seem very likely to have duplicate tags at some point.

The UI should either prevent the user to create duplicate tags or provide a way to disambiguate (the later seeming less restrictive but tricky to implement the way teedy is currently designed)

I've searched for similar issues but didn't find one, sorry if that has already been brought up to you.
