Hi Uwe,

Closing  and reopening the buffer the modline reflects  HG-30

Instead of HG-31.

Can anybody confirm this, bug or feature?

I don't know if it's a bug, but it's definitely lack of a feature: unlike, say, Git, the Hg backend doesn't define its own mode-line-string handler, so the mode line displays what vc-default-mode-line-string returns, and it uses the current revision without any tags.

Do we really want to display the current tag in the mode-line? Do we want to see the word "tip" in there?
