Excluding in filters don't show all results

This is a little bit hard to explain but I've been seeing it a lot lately with the mass tagging that I've been doing.

  1. In the filters on either the To Read list or on the Read list, tick off a bunch of tags in the "Exclude" filter and click the Filter button. In this example, I'm trying to exclude all books that already have any tag that starts with "original-language", but I was seeing this with much smaller groups of tags as well.
  2. After clicking "Filter", you will see a list of results. In this case, it showed me I had 562 books left to tag.
  3. I proceeded to tag 20 books. This meant I went through two different loading phases with the infinite scroll. I see a particular book as the next untagged book (in the screenshot, that book is The Little Disturbances of Man).
  4. I scroll back up to the top and click "Filter" again. The total number in the filter goes down by 20 books, but the first book in the list is not the book I expect to see (in the screenshot it is Incarnadine instead, even though the sort on the list hasn't changed). There are a whole bunch of new books in the list first before that book reappears.

This is much less of a big deal when I'm working through 500+ books remaining, but it becomes a struggle when I get near the end of a tagging endeavor. I will think that I am done, because I get to what appears to be the bottom of the list. But then when I refresh the filter, just to make sure, there are often many books that just didn't appear when the infinite scroll loaded. I have to repeat this process many times in order to actually be completed with tagging. It seems like there might be something going wrong with the infinite scroll that it skips seemingly ten-ish books at a time when it is loading.

(argh, the screenshots ended up out of order! hopefully it is clear which ones go where based on the description of the repro steps!)
