The CheckUser block form does not tag users if the length of the tag is less than 2 to "avoid mistakes". There is no indication that this is the case on the client side which is likely to lead to confusion.
There should be a minimum length set for the inputs so that the form will not submit when the tag is less than 2 characters. It should be able to skip this check if the checkbox for the input is not selected.
