Hi Max,

That is definitely _not_ the behaviour I get.

Everything is okay up to here...

It does? Cool - I learned something new today :)  All my tasks have tags
so this returns an empty list for me

I get TAB completion in the minibuffer for tags so something must be
wrong in your setup.

At the 'Tag: ' prompt, if I hit C-h k TAB I get this

,----
| TAB (translated from <tab>) runs the command minibuffer-complete,
| which is an interactive compiled Lisp function.
| 
| It is bound to TAB, <menu-bar> <minibuf> <tab>.

| (minibuffer-complete)
| 
| Complete the minibuffer contents as far as possible.
| Return nil if there is no valid completion, else t.
| If no characters can be completed, display a list of possible completions.
| If you repeat this command after it displayed such a list,
| scroll the window of possible completions.

I have a CANCELLED tag, if I type 'caTAB' it completes to CANCELLED for
me.

C-g quits and the minibuffer is no longer active for me.

What version of Emacs and org-mode are you using?
