Uncaught DOMException: Failed to execute 'removeChild' on 'Node' in jquery-3.1.1

[YovavGad]

I'm getting this error in the browser console when adding the same tag name twice, for example, adding tag1, tag1,

Also, both tags are removed (instead of keeping the original one)

Uncaught DOMException: Failed to execute 'removeChild' on 'Node': The node to be removed is no longer a child of this node. Perhaps it was moved in a 'blur' event handler?

I fixed it by adding a try { } catch on line 201 like this:

$('.tag-editor-tag', ed).each(function(){ if ($(this).text() == tag) { try { input.closest('li').remove(); } catch(e){} } });

see #117

There is also a corresponding Pull-Request #119 which, in my opinion, fixes this bug very well.

Another way to reproduce:
type any tag, type comma to separate and create tag. Now type backspace, followed by comma again. Boom. Error.
