A config option like that already exists.  I am using:

[remote "git.debian.org"]
	url = git://git.debian.org/git/collab-maint/elinks.git
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/git.debian.org/*
	fetch = refs/tags/*:refs/tags/git.debian.org/*
	tagopt = --no-tags

So I have e.g. a ref called refs/tags/git.debian.org/orig-0.11.4
that points to a tag object that says "tag orig-0.11.4".  I hope
git fsck will never be changed to complain about that.
