The command "bzr tag FOO" is running in the current directory. Thus it
should get the revision for whatever the current directory is. If it is
a checkout which is out of date, than it should be for the revision id
of the checkout.

"bzr tag FOO path/to/branch" should get the current revision for that
branch/checkout and use it. (Though it also is setting the tag *inside*
the same branch/checkout)

I think of it like doing a "cvs tag" when you are out of date. You
wouldn't expect it to tag the last entry in HEAD, would you? (Though cvs
 requires this, since you use 'cvs tag' in order to create a branch)
