This comes up every few months.  The last large discussion about this
that we had IIRC was

  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/138848

Can you please look through that thread and state in what way your
use-case invalidates the previous reasoning?

In particular, in what way do notes (as in git-notes(1)) fail to solve
your problem?
