This supposes there is no valuable branch-level metadata.
Currently we have the description - something which could arguably
be moved to the git level as well. Otherwise that sounds
reasonable to me.

Will it be something like

      [branch "master"]
              description = "My primary development line"

Yes, exactly. It's just a simple per-branch description string, just
like in your suggestion.

if so I think that is a reasonable thing to do, from git-core's
point of view. Obviously, gitk, tig, gitweb and friends can use
this, too.

Absolutely.

Are there other per-branch information StGIT wants to keep on an
active branch that might benefit the core as well?

No, I'm pretty sure there isn't.
