So I guess this would be a config option, where you specify a template
(with a %s in it I guess) for the tag you would like dgit to make.  It
should probably be a distro specific one (ie an "access" config key)
so you could do this iff you were uploading to Debian bug skip it when
uploading to Ubuntu, or whatever.

Presumably it should do this iff
  1. That config option is set
AND
  2. The version number has no Debian revision
?

If the config key is set and the version has a Debian revision, should
it fail or simply not make the tag ?  I a inclined to say "fail".

And should it apply the usual Debian to git syntax transform (as per
DEP-14) ?  Or should it reject version numbers that wouldn't be
unchanged under that transform ?  Or what ?

With answers to these questions I think this becomes a fairly
straightforward SMOP.
