I've been thinking about it, but I'm not really sure what the point is
in that if all fixes should already be in master before entering the
release branch, except for maybe some release-branch specific stuff
(which in turn must not exist, because it would get merged into master
after release has been tagged)? You can't even put some release notes
into the release branch?

Also, a revert can be reverted again, if needed, before a merge, i.e.
revert, tag, release, unrevert, merge, delete.
