I’m using the Python client to delete series.

I’m correctly deleting data point filtering the tag like: `delete_api.delete(start,stop,'_measurement="Postazione1" and TipoTest="my_test"')`

The only think is that the tag my\_test remain saved on the database. Is there a way to delete the tag as well?
