Yeah, this is a good idea, I in fact had a very similar one.

Still, when making possible 2.8.1, I'll go through all master commits and 
judge them as we *will* forget to add that tag. It is nonetheless still useful 
as "the author thinks this should be backported".

Also please note that due to the fact we don't have stable/trunk translation 
branches (to keep things easy for translators), any BACKPORT commits should 
respect string freeze (we can change that, but it would be another 
discussion).
