You don't need to know which branch a tag is on, you can simply checkout a tag as expected.
...as long as the tag is present in .hgtags in the latest revision on the current branch, right? That's what I meant.
The Mercurial book is a little old, but has some useful detail: http://hgbook.red-bean.com/read/managing-releases-and-branchy-development.html
It doesn't seem to go into that detail, but https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/Tag says:
"Updating a working dir to a particular tag will take that directory back to a point before the tag itself existed."
Anyway, this is a bit off topic, so I'm going to stop here.
