Problem with Unique ID tags and filters

There seems to be a priority issue with Unique ID tags. It is helpful and possible to have both user and IP tagged, but IP takes precedence over user in the listings. It should be the other way around.

For instance say you have a company who's IP only resolves to the ISP name. I want to tag that IP with the company name. Say I tag a user at that company with his/her name. I would expect that if the tagged user appears on the site their name would be listed, if someone else from the company visits our site I want the company name to appear. Currently the company name always appears even if the users unique ID is tagged.

Could you please change the listing algorithm so that if(user && IP) {display user}
Easy way to do that, scan UIDs before IPs. Stop and display result with the first match.

Thanks,

Update: Now I'm confused. I just did the same thing, named both the user and the IP, but I did IP first. Now the user, not IP name is shown on lists. The only logic is alphabetical. In one case the user came before the company, alphabetically. The opposite was true on the other.

Hmmmmm. Are you by chance doing a brute force search of the Visitor tag database, sorted alphabetically, checking each entry for a match to the UID or IP and reporting the first match? If so it would mean a huge increase in processor overhead compared to a search on a UID/IP index. It would also give inconsistent results.
