This doesn't feel like it fits so well with git based flows - generally
the tags end up in git one way or another so there'll be a strong
tendency for this to end up getting added for one version and then
carried forward to the next version.  The way the tooling is at present
it doesn't really feel like there's a good point at which to insert the
tag.

I'm not sure exactly what'd be better though.
