I'm having this same problem, but when I remove the tag to edit a post, it says that the "status-completed moderator tag must be present"

Is this intended behavior? The net result is that you can't edit a post that's been marked with a moderator tag

    There was a recent change to this -- I tried rolling back a mod tag edit and failed. Hold on, let me find the question.

    Here we go: meta.stackoverflow.com/posts/66181/revisions -- I tried to roll it back in revision 10, but it didn't work. I then rolled back to revision 1, which did remove the tag, so I guess all the kinks haven't been worked out of whatever was changed. I'm assuming that this has something to do with your problem, though it may be unrelated.

  • While the error message is bad, I assume the "can't edit" part is intentional; this prevents you from changing the question after a moderator has already addressed it.

  • FWIW, we can still retag (at least using the in-page retagging tool): meta.stackoverflow.com/posts/74028/revisions

This should now be fixed. Sorry for the regression, we were removing some duplicated code, and this is one of those edge conditions.
