Yes, visually this would be very fine with me. But shortlog is a repository-wide view, while I need the same for history which is a file-specific view. Things are obviously a little more complex there, because for a given file, it is statistically unlikely that each commit affecting the file in question corresponds to a tag. So we have to find the best tag to display in front of each commit (easiest bet would be the next tag time-wise) and maybe improve a bit from there (for example by not showing the same tag twice). But then again I would be very happy with a relatively raw output for the time being.
