   I don't personally see a major benefit to tagging pre-releases, but I
 can see why some may want it. It might also make it easier to compare
 diffs/find commits between Betas/RCs I guess.

 As a plugin developer, we are constantly running tests in CI against the
 upcoming releases. Both for the tagged pre-releases and the latest commit
 in the "main" (trunk) branch.

 Because the whole system is git-based, we clone every dependency in the CI
 and run the test. Currently, I manually search for the commit hash for
 pre-releases, but it will be way easier for us if the pre-release tags are
 in there.
