BUG: HTML export of Tags containing underscore

BUG: HTML export of Tags containing underscore

[Eric J Haywiser]

I believe that tags containing the underscore character
are not correctly exported to HTML in v 5.12c.  For example
consider an org file containing:

* Test
** Test :NEW_TEST:

I would expect the HTML source to read:

<h3>1.1 Test &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class="tag">NEW_TEST</span></h3>

but instead I get

<h3>1.1 Test :NEW<sub>TEST</sub>:</h3>

I understand that _ is a valid tag character from:

6 Tags
******

headline.  Tags are normal words containing letters, numbers, `_', and
`@'.  Tags must be preceded and followed by a single colon; like
`:WORK:'.  Several tags can be specified like `:WORK:URGENT:'.

Thanks

If you don't need the <sub> or <sup> HTML formatting in your document, a
quick workaround is to set the ^ option to nil:

#+OPTIONS: ^:nil

Yes it *is* a valid character.  Maybe the tag export should be fixed.
