It clearly should be (and should have been from the start) the former 
one.

Indeed.

And as you propose, the _usage_ of tags should largely be unchanged as 
in most cases there won't be any ambiguity, and therefore using "git log 
v1.7.0" will just work even if the v1.7.0 tag is actually 
refs/remotes/origin/tags/v1.7.0.

So I hardly see what it is that people are unhappy about in this 
proposal.
