Hmm, no, that sounds like a bug. There's no 'pinned' tags system atm.
If you type the tag in the manage tags dialog autocomplete, does it appear to be in any siblings? e.g.:
the ghost tag is "character:samus aran"
you type in "samus"
you see "samus aran (will display as character:samus aran)" in the list somewhere
There appears to be a bug in the new siblings code where sometimes a sibling implication does not remove when the base tag it was implicated by is removed. I am still chasing this down. It seems to occur more often from tag changes by the Client API, but it does not sound like you have been using this to edit tags.
I don't have a good maintenance task to fix a small number of bad files in the case of a miscount, but I will write one when I get to the parents cache in a couple of weeks.
