Describe the problem to be solved

A user of my instance is asking to enter tags without the Enter key. He has a virtual keyboard that doesn't have the key. I've tried with the comma key as it is common to be able to separate tags with it in other sites but the only way I find is by pressing Enter.

Describe the solution you would like:

A possible solution is to be able to separate tags by pressing the comma key.

Thanks.

Unless I am mistaken, commas and dots can be used as in tags, so that might not work.

How about adding a button next to the field that adds tags instead? Something that looks like this, perhaps?

I think this issue is better raised in ng-select's repo, as select-tags.component.html uses ng-select. I am not experienced with PeerTube source code though, might wanna wait for someone to confirm.
