I'd rather have gitweb use git-for-each-ref after the command
is in the official release... if not, then keep it in the 'next'
branch.

By the way, I have an idea to join the git-show-ref and git-for-each-ref:
simply add --deref option to git-for-each-ref, which would output
dereferenced tag just after the reference itself (well, perhaps with the
exception when sorting, perhaps not), with the deref name like in
git-show-ref and git-peek-remote, i.e. <ref>^{}
