This is a little odd.

locate primarily exists to find paths in the working directory
manifest primarily exists to list paths in changesets

So we've got both find vs list and repository vs working directory
differences. In particular, 'hg manifest' will list all files in the
parent changeset, not all tracked files in the working directory, which
can be entirely different things.
