Wordpress editor: "pick from existing tags" is gone?

In the olden days of Wordpress, I could compose a new post and pick from existing tags using the "Tags" section in the right sidebar. With the current editor, that "Tags" section still lets me enter new tags - but "pick from existing" is gone.

Short of opening the list of existing tags in a new window (/wp-admin/edit-tags.php?taxonomy=post_tag), how do I get this useful functionality back?

• Thanks for the migration; I got the impression that this site is more for developers rather than users like myself. – Torben Gundtofte-Bruun Commented Feb 18, 2020 at 13:36

You mean this?

It's been on discussion 2 years ago and I think it is one of the reasons why Gutenberg is not really beloved by many people.

If you don't rely on Gutenberg and need the feature so badly, you can use a plugin that enables the Classic Editor for posts, at least.

I know that is not a perfect solution, but I'm not aware of any plugin to do what you need for Gutenberg and maybe your posts are of simpler nature, so that they won't need Gutenberg at all.
