ExifToolHelper only checks the validity of the Tag **NAME** based on a simple regex pattern.
* It *does not* validate whether the tag name is actually valid on the file type(s) you're accessing.
* It *does not* validate whether the tag you passed in that "looks like" a tag is actually an option
* It does support a "#" at the end of the tag name to disable print conversion
Please refer to `ExifTool Tag Names`_ documentation for a complete list of valid tags recognized by ExifTool.
.. warning::
While this property is provided to give callers an option to enable/disable tag names checking, it is generally **NOT** recommended to disable ``check_tag_names``.
**If disabled, you could accidentally edit a file when you meant to read it.**
Example: ``get_tags("a.jpg", "tag=value")`` will call ``execute_json("-tag=value", "a.jpg")`` which will inadvertently write to a.jpg instead of reading it!
That said, if PH's exiftool changes its tag name regex and tag names are being erroneously rejected because of this flag, disabling this could be used as a workaround (more importantly, if this is happening, please `file an issue`_!).
