I was under the mistaken impression that we wanted to retain the tagline field specifically because it was metadata we extracted from the package manifest. According to http://click.readthedocs.org/en/latest/file-format.html this is not the case.

Given that, and the fact that the closest map we have to the old click `title` field in the new snap manifest is `summary`, the recommendation is to map `summary` in `snap.yaml` to `title` in the Store API and, as dobey suggested in bug #1303354, drop tagline altogether.

I'm re-assigning this bug to software-center-agent for now, as that's where the immediate work will take place, but soon this metadata will be extracted by click-reviewers-tools so the code will move there instead.
