Show tag labels in the Journal view in the same way as in the Log
Would be great to see the tag labels also in the Journal view, especially now when it looks exactly as the Log view. Add/Remove tags in the context menu here would be also great.

You just want to see tags, not other branches? The Journal view looks similar to the log, but it's optimized to display the history for your current branch, its remote branch and an optional auxiliary branch. Hence we by intention skip other refs.
Yes, this would be great! I'm using a tag for each software release, which displays the version number. Showing these tags in the journal would greatly help to see what's changed since the previous release. This only applies to the current branch, so no need to show other branches.
Supporting this!
Even the basic Git GUI shows tags of a commit... I miss it so much on the SmartGit Journal.
And once this is done, also enable right-click > Reveal Commit on tags in the Journal view.
More generally speaking, the Working Tree window is a nice view to overview all changes made so far without the clutter of commit window and diff, if you're merely looking at the history commits in order to write a changelog. This allows the journal to take most of the window width and read longer commit messages.
Since changelogs are often written between versions marked with tags, it is very useful to start from a given tag (previous relase), then read all the commits until the next release tag.
Would love to see this happen, it would save a lot of time not having to open new windows to check tags on repos for me. Another great option (or maybe in place of this) would be letting us put the graph from the log window in place of journal, let me pick one or the other, I know the graph would be too messy for some people but for a single/double dev team it'd be a nice option to be able to choose.
It's been 7 years since this. Any news? Is it too difficult to implement?
