It would not require files to be renamed, and it would be more flexible. OTOH it would not be possible to apply gitattributes (or file renamings) to old revisions, so the history would continue to be rendered naively. But here's an additional idea: github could provide web access to the equivalent of $GIT_DIR/info/attributes (a project-wide .gitattributes file), which would allow the rendering of files in historical revisions to be customized and would also allow github rendering behavior to be defined even in projects that do not want github-specific tags in the .gitattributes files in their project.
