What some shops do is have a lube attachment that will spray a low viscosity lube at the tap, others will have a cup mounted off to the side (out of the coolant stream) and program the tool to move to it and dip the tip in paste. That's wasteful and usually far too much lube.
And you're right, I expect that tap to be an "heirloom" tool, right along with my measuring tools.
