That is true. I was not thinking about optimizing the lightweight tag case -- we would want to be able to tell that they are not tag objects and skip peel_ref altogether, and in order to do that we do need a way to tell us that we can trust the absense of peeled representation in the packed-refs file.
It is my day job day so I do not expect I can continue til later today, though...
