When forcing to overwrite an annotated tag, there are good chances one
wants to keep the old annotation, or modify it, not start from scratch.
This is obviously only triggered for annotated tagging (-a or -s).

You are free to remove the else that makes the tag template not show up
in the editor, but I'm not convinced it is any useful. Maybe a new
template for this annotation reuse would be sensible.
