If I create a capture template that creates a headline such as:

"* %? :note:\n", then upon capturing the note tag is correctly shifted over
to org-tags-column.

However, if I position the %? cursor to be:

%?:note:
:note:%?

or anywhere in between, the tags are not written to the correct column,
instead with 1 space after the headline. I just wanted to manually define
some extra tags, instead of using %^g/%^G, but this messes up the column
placement.

Curious, has anyone been able to look into this and my other bug report
that has gone unnoticed, or is more information needed?

This is because neither %?:note: nor :note:%? are tag syntax, and %?
place holder is removed as the last step of the process, i.e., after
aligning tags.

This doesn't solve your problem, but, at least you know the reason why.
