I'm nervous asking submitters to change their workflows without
providing any tooling to help :(

This isn't workable - it assumes the user will only change the patches
after all the tags have been sent because it resets the whole branch
to the as-sent condition.

Usually I would make changes to the series as the discussion evolves
and resync the tags only before resending the next version.
