Now the tag field is the same for both nested and ajax fields. To run in ajax mode (default) you can avoid the mode attribute or set it to mode="ajax":

        <field name="tags" type="tag"
            label="JTAG" description="JTAG_DESC"
            class="inputbox span12 small" multiple="true"
        />

And the same field in nested mode:

        <field name="tags" type="tag" mode="nested"
            label="JTAG" description="JTAG_DESC"
            class="inputbox span12 small" multiple="true"
        />

Also we have now a new function to search tags with filters:

// Receive request data
$filters = array(
    // search in path or title
    'like'      => 'mytag',
    // search title
    'title'     => 'mytag',
    // filter language
    'language'  => $app->input->get('language', null),
    // status filter
    'published' => $app->input->get('published', 1, 'integer'),
    // Only search tags in the children tree of
    'parent_id' => $app->input->get('parent_id', null)
);

JTags::searchTags($filters);
