These were the tests manually done in Chrome:

6. Feature in Action
7. Lesson Learned
One of the issues I encountered while doing this was that the dropdown options were not displaying when I clicked on the ulog-subtag dropdown. I was able to investigate the cause using Chrome's developer console and element inspector and eventually found out that it's related with the dropdown's z-index which was set around 1000+.
I was able to resolve this by overriding the .ant-select-dropdown style.
