While you are right, this feels like more of a workaround than a reason not
to create these "GA" tags.  In any revision control system with labels,
creating labels for actual releases is the single most natural and obvious
thing to do.

Also, you don't need the actual 7u40 forest.  If you happen to have a jdk7u
forest, you can do
hg tupdate -r jdk7u40-b62

Why not allow
hg tupdate -r jdk7u40
