Tagging UI control

[Jonathan Giles]

ControlsFX has a CustomTextField component that allows for nodes to be 
placed on the left / right of a normal TextField, without overlapping 
the text. I would probably use that internally along with some custom 
code to render the individual tags in an HBox on the left.
