Answer 1

This is a well known bug that is easy to fix. Find the control ascx file and correct the five part class identifier, where a period is in the place of a comma.

Answer 2

Load control template file /_controltemplates/TaxonomyPicker.ascx failed

This issue appears because of the misspelled character ',' (comma) as its # code ',' in the control template.

The solution is to replace the code with the character by locating the TaxonomyPicker.ascx under C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\CONTROLTEMPLATES folder

Now coming to the your question, if you ever happen to go through the SharePoint namespaces you will not find TaxonomyPicker class, thus concluding that the Control Template is not used at all in SharePoint.
