We've already told clients for a long time to ignore fields they don't
know about, why would we not store what's intended to be
machine-readable key-value pair data in the commit object itself, as
opposed to sticking it in the log message where parsing it is always
going to be a bit more tricky & distracting, since users will have to
look at this arbitrary metadata when they do "git log" or "git show".
