I do not understand the above excuse. for-each-ref takes a callback data pointer exactly because it wants you to be able to extend what data the callback function gets without changing its signature. builtin/tag.c::verify_tag() is a helper static to the file--why should it be "burdensome" to change it to fit your needs? Adding technical debt by going backwards is never a good idea especially done to add a new feature that is not desperately needed.
