'show', perhaps?

...what'd be nice is to make it take an arbitrary selector, get the
matching revisions, and then output the IDs along with the values for
each (ambiguous?) item in the selector. So,
   mtn show 'c:release/b:*'
would give a list of (ID, 'release' cert value, branch) lines, and
   mtn show 'c:release/b:net.venge.monotone'
would give a list of (ID, 'release' cert value) lines, since all listed
revision would be in the same branch. Maybe printing some lines at the
end, giving the values of selector items that are the same on all the
listed revisions, so this example would have a line "branch:
net.venge.monotone" at the end?
