(I was hoping someone who'd used tags with python would chime in, I
haven't. Ironically, I've used python to generate tags.)

No, normally there can be lots of tag files and vim searches them all
if necessary, and it doesn't stop when it finds a tag if you've
used :tselect.

F. ex., in the vim source tree I've put a "tags" file in every
directory, and in a vim at the top of the tree

:set tags=**/tags
:ts main

I see 17 choices.
