He is basically right - it's important that everyone who might be
interested has a chance to learn of the proposal without following all
discussions.

What you should do: Extend the voting period by two weeks (leaving the
existing votes intact, of course), send out a mail with the correct
subject, and wait what happens.

As you can already use the tags without an accepted proposal, that
additional two weeks period will not cause any harm, and can eliminate
any doubts about the validity of the proposal.
