            Description

            As reported here - http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php?topic=34971

            In 4.4 any user with "access CiviCRM" permission could create a new tag within a tagset.

            In 4.5 the widget was switched to EntityRef and the old custom ajax callback (https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/blob/4.4/CRM/Admin/Page/AJAX.php#L341 ) was deleted.

            EntityRef uses the ajax api, which requires "administer CiviCRM" for creating tags.

            Short of creating a separate permission, I think "access CiviCRM" is a better choice for the tag api.
