Two issues.

One is that it is unclear is how the reachability rules should
be.  Should an ??/?{38} entry in the refs/annotations/commits
protects the commit the entry talks about (i.e. ???{38}) from
getting pruned?

Another is how different kinds of annotations on the same commit
should be managed.  Should different commits and their histories
pointed at by refs/annotations/{frotz,xyzzy,...} be used for
that?  Or perhaps we should make ??/?{38} a tree that has
multiple files underneath it?
