I think that this could easily be built by a separate script which provides git release command line and uses tags under the hood in a well formed way. I wouldn't say that the method outlined here works for all projects but I do agree it's fairly common and could work for many projects

I think most large projects already use annotated tags and tho they have their own format it works pretty well. 

Showing a tool that could help projects create more standardized release tags would be helpful.

I think such a tool could already be built, scripted to create annotated tags with a well formed name. I don't think you necessarily need to have this in core git, tho I do see that your main goal is to piggyback on git itselfs popularity

Thanks
