As to your specific proposal, I'm concerned about co-evolution. Suppose a new Jelly tag requires something to be added to the core of Jelly. Since this tag will either be released concurrently with, or after Jelly is, this is not a problem. However, suppose one day somebody forgets a semicolon in a commit to Jelly...
