Now that wolves have been added to Minecraft, I'm sure a bunch of people out there will treat them not necessarily as hunters, but also as pets. I became attached to my first few wolves, especially when the first one got killed (I even made a memorial in his honor). For that reason, I think there should be name tags so you can properly and officially name them. You may say you can just use signs and such, but what if you have a bunch of them and want to take them for a walk or something? You can easily lose track of them.
You may think it's pointless. Why bother naming something that's meant to be used as a weapon? It's like naming your sword. While they were implemented to be weapons, like I said before, I'm sure there are people out there who treat their wolves as companions, not weapons. If you don't want to name them, you don't have to. But it could benefit those who do.
