The branch names came WELL before the existence of a dist tag.  I don't know 
the origins within Red Hat, but it's been this way for a LONG time, RHL-7_0 
exists in some internal modules.

As to why I didn't change it, mostly because I want there to be as little 
impact/change as possible with the new VCS.  Getting a new VCS in place 
ALLOWS us to investigate other changes, made possible by a more capable VCS.  
However if we try to change too many things at once it all falls down in 
shambles.
