The HINT should have read:

             For a single-tag cert, the tag-id is essentially the cert-id
             of the "eldest" ancestor cert from which you derive the
             authority to bind that tag, possibly your own auto-cert-id.

As the remainder of the post indicates, this would usually be a simple copy
from the immediate parent cert.
