I’ve noticed a problem with how multi-level tags are displayed in the Card Browser. When multiple full multi-level tags appear, such as `Science::Biology::Genetics::DNA`, `Science::Biology::Genetics::RNA`, and `Science::Physics::Quantum`, the display can get quite long and cluttered.

It would be much more user-friendly if the last-level tags could be displayed more concisely. For instance, instead of showing the full hierarchy, it could simply display them as `...::DNA`, `...::RNA`, and `...::Quantum`. This way, we could easily identify the relevant tags without the distraction of the full tag structure.

I believe this enhancement would greatly improve usability in the Card Browser. Thank you for your consideration!

The tags should collapse for you like that when they have limited room.

Right, but in card browser, it can’t show like this.

Oh, got it! I understand, and you’re correct – in the rows of the Browser table, tag names don’t collapse.
