Was talking with Roan a bit earlier on IRC about this, and we got to thinking that an external version.php file could be defined per-extension. A new 'versionfile' param could be added to $wgExtensionCredits which points to the file. The version file could contain the numeric version, the svn version (which can be updated by an after-commit hook) and (optionally) a version name. More or less: do it kind of how we do extension i18n files right now, plus the hook to auto-update the info post-commit.

One thing I thought it might be helpful for is for ExtensionDistributor to use those release tags.
