One thing that _might_ be a good idea for tags (if people _really_ 
want to actually update tags under the same name) is to have a 
"parent" pointer for tag objects, the same way we have for commits. 
That way you could - if you really wanted to - create a chain of tags, 
and show the history of them.

Wouldn't it be better to just use reflog for given tag? That assuming of 
course that we could protect tag reflog from pruning...

No. Reflogs are a local thing, tags not necessarily. And much fun 
"pushing" a reflog to another repo.
