I agree with you.  I've come up with the attached patch, let me know
what you think.

For a quick way to test it, I used the option window-combination-limit:

emacs -Q
M-x customize-variable window-combination-limit

Changing the values, it can be seen when the tag string is filled and
when it's not.
