Gallery categories duplicate when attempts to move items to them are made.

The subject summarizes the bug. I apologize if this is/was already known, but it hadn't seemed to have been.
Interestingly, if categories are duplicated and reach over the limit of fifty, all items previously in a category other than the "none" default are put back into the "none" default.
Edit 6/15/2020: The problem is still occurring.
If this is still happening to you, could you please let me know the following information:
- Which specific categories this happens to (and which specific gallery is the category in)
- Which item(s) did you attempt to move into the category
- Does it seem to happen with ALL of your categories?

- The duplicated categories happen in alphabetical order and are preceded by an error message that the maximum number of categories is fifty. The number duplicated stop at the maximum number allowed each time. It is occurring in the galley "A Mountain of Plushies".
- It does not appear to matter what items are moved.
- It happens regardless of the category being moved to.
Okay, I figured out why it's happening to your specific gallery (but it's still a glitch on our end, sort of)
Could you try going to the "Edit Categories" page of your gallery and deleting the extra space in between the words in each category name, save changes, and see if that resolves the issue?
